Description

I have a text input and a FlatList made of TouchableOpacity items in a Modal. When the focus is on the text input and the keyboard appears, I lose the focus on the rest of the component. So if I click on one of the Touchables, it will first make the keyboard disappear and i'll have to click again to trigger the touch event.
Is it possible to keep the focus on both the keyboard and the rest of the component (which is the case with a classic View) ?
Thanks

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with a text input and a FlatList of TouchableOpacity items inside a Modal, with the keyboard active. Start by examining how the Modal handles focus and keyboard dismissal during touch events. Done means a TouchableOpacity activates on the first click while the text input and keyboard remain available.
