Description
Hi
I think it will be useful to add `request_focus` call to other controls (i.e a button) to steal it from an active text box to trigger validation and data updating.
The current behavior I seem to be user unfriendly as after entering some text the user is required to press Enter key instead of just clicking a button "create"/"next".

Research direction
Start by tracing how request_focus, text-box focus, validation, and button activation interact in Druid. Confirm the expected behavior for clicking a create or next button after editing text, then identify the relevant tests or add coverage showing that focus changes trigger validation and data updating.
