More of an irritation than a bug per se. The typing focus appears to default to the find box, not the text area. I cannot find any setting which allows this (text-area focus). I've programmed enough to know this should be possible. ;)
Which version is that? With e.g. 15.12.0 all is like it should and the document has the focus per default
Latest v2.5; previously the initial focus was on the file list. I understand this as an usability related bug since the active file is still highlighted while in fact the path (depending on the configuration I guess) has the focus.
