Steps to reproduce
  1. Install "Deck"
  2. Install "Nextcloud Office" with a Docker backend
  3. Install "Client Push" (https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/notify_push, setup as described in https://arnowelzel.de/en/client-push-for-nextcloud) and enable it
  4. Open a Deck board
  5. Create a new Deck card
  6. Open the Deck card and edit the description and notice, that cursor may jump to the "title" field unintentationally (also see https://github.com/nextcloud/deck/issues/6528)
  7. Leave the Deck card open and stop the "Client Push" service on the server
  8. In the Deck card set the cursor back to the description field, so you can edit it
  9. On the server start the "Client Push" service again
  10. Watch the open Deck card and notice, that the cursor may jumped to the title field without any user input at all
  11. Leave Deck again
  12. Create a new spreadsheet in Nextcloud Office
  13. Open the spreedsheet and enter some content using Safari on macOS
  14. Start using the "Search" function and type something into the search field
  15. See what happens
Expected behaviour

The Client Push does not change the behaviour of the frontend in the browser.

Actual behaviour

The Client Push affects the behaviour of "Deck" and "Nextcloud Office" - maybe other apps as well, but I did not test other apps with Client Push enabled or disabled.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Deck and Nextcloud Office behaviors with Client Push stopped and restarted, following the listed steps and comparing browser results. Trace the notify_push behavior involved in those updates; done means Client Push no longer moves the Deck cursor or interferes with the Office search field, while the existing reproduction cases remain covered.
