Windows-only.

Win 5.2 repo blames https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=dd46727b99d4bb5135451aa7e5e1bdb197373843

Resolves; tdf#87120 no keyboard navigation inside floating windows
lets try and treat these the same as we do normal toplevels
like dialogs if they popup with GrabFocus.

This way focus can be set on widgets inside the floating windows, and
so keyboard traversal of widgets etc all works.

do you mean there is no blinking cursor in the main window while the menu is active ?

Yep, no blinking cursor in the Writer text input area.

I think we can live with this as a sort of desirable consequence of the focus truly moving to the floating elements
