Yes, I've noticed that too. I think we want to maintain keyboard
focus in the sidebar if:
1. The user has shifted focus to the sidebar; and
2. The user is trying to use the keyboard to navigate (e.g. arrow
keys); or
3. The user is trying to multi-select in the sidebar

Currently there is no way that I'm am aware of to navigate the
sidebar from the keyboard. If you pick a collection with the mouse
you can then use the up/ down arrows to move to an adjacent
collection but you can only move one collection away from the first
one. After the arrow key causes you to go to a different
collection the focus jumps out of the sidebar and addition presses
of the arrow key will no longer affect the sidebar.
This seems like an accessibility issue to me. We might want to
think about how to make the sidebar accessible from the keyboard.
