That should be a setting. Otherwise there will always be a software keyboard popup on mobile platforms.

Not that easy, since element.focus() is noop if it's not coming from an user interaction.

There might be challenges if running on a mobile device (due to keyboard popup) but it seems like you would always want to set focus on a desktop web page. Most web apps (including GitHub) set input focus when you click on buttons that lead to data entry. It seems very awkward to click on a button, have an alert displayed to enter a value, and still have to click in the input before entering the value.
