Bug description

When a measure is deleted in the middle of the score the selection/focus reverts back to the first note of the score. This means for a screen reader lots of counting and key presses to try to get back to that place again to continue editing. Expected behaviour would be for selection/focus to be on beat 1 of the bar after the bar that was deleted. i.e. if you delete bar 12 selection would move to what was bar 13 beat 1 and is now bar 12 beat 1.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Select a measure somewhere mid score, say bar 12, then use Ctrl + Del to delete that measure.
  2. Selection/Focus is now on bar 1.
