Wysiwyg-editor: Edit area loses focus when clicking toolbar buttons
Expected behavior.
Froala edit area should keep focus when clicking buttons in the toolbar on a mobile phone.
Actual behavior.
The edit area loses focus when clicking buttons in the toolbar. This results in the virtual keyboard being hidden every time you click a toolbar icon. As soon as you want to continue writing, the virtual keyboard reappears.
Steps to reproduce the problem.
Open the froala editor on a mobile phone. Start typing and then hit the underline button.
Editor version.
v3.0.0
OS.
Android 9
Browser.
Mobile Chrome 74.0.3729.157
(also happens using Mobile Safari or Mobile Firefox)

We're witnessing this behavior as well in IE10/IE11. In addition to losing focus it also scrolls to the top of the page (not the editor, the actual page!). Looks like it's trying to find an element to scroll to and focus but instead of the editor itself it's grabbing the document in IE10 and IE11.

You can reproduce this here by using IE11, scrolling down a little bit, and changing the Paragraph Format to something else. The page should scroll to the top and the editor will lose focus.

The latest version mentions some focus fixes in the changelog but I can confirm that the below behavior is still occurring in IE11. The only change is that after jumping all the way to the top of the page, the editor still retains focus.

I'm not sure if we should go through other channels to raise problems but it's pretty frustrating to not get any feedback or status on open github issues. More so since this is "closed source" and there's not really much initiative we can take ourselves. I realize the team is probably swamped, but having a bit of an idea what the release schedule/roadmap is like and what to expect in the upcoming versions would be pretty helpful.
