Description
Issue type
UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)
Description with steps to reproduce
Sub-issue of #16709
Popups (on dynamics, text, etc.) open in the Publish tab which allows editing of the score. Using the undo shortcut doesn't work in Publish, so you can accidentally make an edit and then not undo it (unless you switch back to Score).
