Follow-up Comment #8, bug #59626 (project octave):

The story behind bug #57635 was that for Qt versions >= 5.13.1 the behaviour
of Qt's focus proxy was changed. What happened in Octave was that you can lose
focus in the editor during writing if auto-completion is enabled or if you
close adjacent tabs. However, this "feature" has been reversed for Qt greater
than 5.15.x (to my knowledge) because it caused trouble also in other
projects. The code in Octave 6.x and 7 works around the problem of the focus
proxy and is therefore compatible with all Qt versions. However I don't know
if the fix was merged to Octave 5.x and against which Qt version Octave 5.x is
actually build.
