Description

So I have a use case when I need to put other component inside the MenuList component of react-select and the problem is when I do it, I am not able to focus or interact with that input.

I forked codesandbox you can check it. Again, problem is input or button elements unable to click or focus

So goal is have an option to put custom element after menu list like in antDesign select component

Research direction

Start by reproducing the focus and interaction problem in the linked CodeSandbox, using a custom input or button inside react-select's MenuList. Done means those elements can be focused and clicked, with an option for custom content after the menu list comparable to Ant Design Select.
