Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce


Stimulate the Nautilus "open-file" dialog to appear somehow. (Say, by Ctrl+O in 
Firefox on Ubuntu 20.04.
Click the "search" icon (a magnifying glass at top right), or just start typing.
Begin to type a search in the search box that appears.

Reproducible in:
"Files" 3.36.3-stable on Ubuntu 20.04

Current behavior
There's a race condition, where, if you're faster than the search, you can type 
something including a space. However, if you type slowly, as soon as you hit 
space, the first result will be opened.

(Note, this incremental search was buggy in a different way back in
v3.26.4 on Ubuntu 18.04, when I reported this upstream, was told to take
it downstream, and then had to go back to doing real work. See
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/936#note_454231 )

Expected behavior
The incremental search will continue as we type in the search box, without any 
focus-stealing.
