P: Doesn't keep focus in Keywording or Title boxes

After upgrading from 2015.4 to 2015.5, there is a change in behaviour of the keyword box in Library module.

When you have entered keywords and press Ctrl/Cmd+RightArrow to move to the next photo, in the previous version the focus would remain in the keyword box so you can keep adding keywords. In 2015.5 the focus is lost and you need to press Ctrl/Cmd+K to re-focus on the keyword box, slowing down the tagging process.

Yep happening to me too on mac, its slowy down captioning, which can drag out when I have to caption each photo for submission for a newspaper

We are looking into it.

Until the recent update, pressing cmd-right for next (left for previous) when editing title/keywords would move you to the next photo, with the keyboard focus still in the field.

Today that's stopped working, the focus is lost so when you start typing, you invoke random keyboard commands!

Duplicate issue lodged here, although this issue does include that the Title field focus is lost which I hadn't noted already: https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/meta-date-editing-cmd-right-as-next-not-worki...

I noticed the same thing -- with all the single-letter shortcuts, it's easy to do a lot of damage!

Keyword spray painting is pretty cool. And the keyword toggle once you've entered a keyword in the spray paint input box (Cmd Shift K on Mac).
It sounds like this particular bug is only seen on Mac, so enjoy your faster keywording on Windows 🙂

An annoying thing is my muscle memory is so used to immediately typing after moving to the next image I've triggered all sorts of other shortcuts like Resize, Lights off mode etc because I'm not focused in the Keyword box

Thanks to those who commented, I should've been clearer and said this is on OS X (El Capitan) also.

This happens with CC 2015.5 on my Mac (OS X 10.11.2) but not on my Windows (10) configuration.  Perhaps it's Mac-specific.
