Description

OpenUI5 version: 1.71.50, also tested with 1.110.0

Browser/version (+device/version): Edge Chromium 110.0.1587.63, Windows 10 x64 22H2

Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Click on the header of a column which has filtering and sorting enabled
  2. In the menu, click on the input field for filter values and start typing
  3. Move mouse pointer and hover over one of the sorting buttons in said menu and try continue typing

What is the expected result?
It is possible to continue typing in the filter field. User input is not interrupted.

What happens instead?
Filter input field loses focus and no longer accepts input until you hover over the filter input field to give it focus again.

Any other information?
Occurs in sap.ui.table.Table. Minor issue, but some users listed this as undesired behavior in case they accidentally move the mouse pointer during typing.

It is possible to observe said behavior in the sample library (e.g. https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/entity/sap.ui.table.Table/sample/sap.ui.table.sample.MultiHeader).
