SUMMARY
Reproducible on both X11 and Wayland sessions.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open system settings
2. right-click on the search field 
3. try to dismiss the context menu by clicking outside it: the context menu remains open
4. minimize and restore system settings: the context menu is still open

EXPECTED RESULT
context menu should be closed when we click outside it

KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0
Qt Version: 5.15.0

Ugh, yet more focus issues in System Settings due to its hybrid QWidgets/QML nature. It will dismiss if you click on any part of the sidebar (which is all QML) but not the main view (which is QML inside of QWidgets).

Identified and moved to upstream: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-128935

I don't think it's worth working around locally given it's existed here for a while. It should be relatively easy to fix upstream if no-one else does it.

Made a fix for the above bug report: https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtdeclarative/+/598375

But there's another twist, that doesn't fix the issue of clicking in another window.  

That needs another investigation and a new fix somewhere.
