Description
Migrated from https://github.com/jquery/jquery/issues/4109
Test case: https://jsfiddle.net/63zby1nt/
Seems like maybe the process the of checking for focus in Edge causes the input to lose focus. More thorough analysis is available in the comments on the jQuery issue.

Start with the test case at https://jsfiddle.net/63zby1nt/ and review the linked jQuery issue comments for the reported Edge Legacy behavior. Investigate how the :focus selector is checked in this browser and verify that the input does not lose focus while selector results are evaluated. Done means the test case behaves consistently in Edge Legacy without regressing other selector behavior.
