Steps to reproduce
Use the "share via..." feature to share some content (text, image...).
Choose Thunderbird.
The compose screen pops up.
Expected behavior
Like with K9 Mail, the cursor should be active in the To (recipient) field as soon as the compose screen shows up.
Actual behavior
When the compose screen shows up, the cursor is nowhere to be seen.
User has to click in the To (recipient) field.

Research direction
Reproduce the Android “share via…” flow with text or an image, then compare the compose screen with the expected K-9 Mail behavior. Trace the share entry point into compose and verify that the To recipient field is focused when the screen appears; done means the cursor is visible there without an extra tap.
