Description

### Description

As the title says, the window for "Select Data Source" disappears seconds after switching tabs, right as you're selecting a data source. So you switch tabs, go to use a different data source for the query, and begin typing the name of the data source to select it (which is a brilliant feature), but then some refresh occurs in the background and the "Select Data Source" window disappears, and suddenly you're typing in the main query window. Only costs seconds, but seems to happen very often and is somewhat maddening.

### DBeaver Version

Community Edition 24.0.4

### Operating System

Windows 10 22H2

### Database and driver

MS SQL 2016; Microsoft JDBC Driver for SQL Server 12.4

### Steps to reproduce

Switch to any other open tab
Hit CTRL-9 to open the "Select Data Source" window
begin typing to filter the existing saved data sources
as you type, the window will disappear, and you'll be typing in the main query window, accidentally.
You now have to hit CTRL-9 again to restart the Data Source selection process
