After rendering a quarto document (e.g. through ctrl + x or when render on save is checked), focus changes to the viewer. This can be quite disruptive.

Research direction

Review related issues #866, #10705, and #10150 first, then trace how Quarto rendering completion changes focus between the editor and viewer. Done means rendering from the editor, including render-on-save, leaves focus where it was instead of moving it to the viewer.
