Since the last update to photon and also present in a freshly downloaded 2018-09 version, keyboard focus is screwed up. I do not remember all occurrences of this issue as I've already got used to using the mouse to click on fields. The one I do remember and find it quite annoying is the 'create folder' dialog:

Project Explorer: right-click folder: New->Folder or File,

Previously I just could start typing the name, but now I cannot even use "Tab" to activate the input field, I explicitly have to click on the input with the mouse to be able to start typing.
