Summary: feature request: "Find next" button on search loses
focus

Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED

odt file containing two screenshots to show cursor focus issue
When searching for repeated instances of a target word in the document by
clicking on the "Find Next" down arrow in the Find toolbar, sometimes another
formatting toolbar pops in and takes the position under the cursor, causing an
inadvertent edit of the document.
e.g. while the found text is of Default Style, the cursor remains over the
"Find Next" button as it is pressed repeatedly to cycle through all the
matching instances in the document, but if the found text of the next match is
of a different format, a new formatting toolbar can get in the way, leaving the
cursor hovering over an edit function.
My feature request: if the last action was to click "find next" and the match
of the search causes another toolbar to pop in, the cursor should move to stay
over the "find next" button, to prevent accidental editing when multiple clicks
are made in quick succession.
Examples in attachment are where most found matches were "Default Text" but
then one that is "Text Body" matches so a "Bullets and Numbering" toolbar
appears where the "Find" toolbar had been, shifting the Find toolbar upwards,
leaving the risk that left clicking without moving the cursor will hit "Move
down with Subpoints" button and cause an edit.
First image - note the cursor is primed to press "Find Next"
Second image - cursor now hovers over "Move down with Subpoints"
