Library name deletes while typing

I have noticed that when I add a new graphic to a library, then double click it's name (defaulted to artboard name), that if I start typing immediately, the entire first few characters get selected then my continued typing overwrites them.

For example, if the name I want to enter is Joes Hardware, I start typing Joes, that will get selected a couple seconds later so that if I jeep typing as normal, all that is left is Hardware. I notice if I wait a few seconds to start typing after the double click,this does not happen.

I couldn't reproduce the issue. I'm on Windows 10 running Illustrator 23.0.3, but I did look on Uservoice and found someone had reported the issue (Text entry error when naming Adobe CC library items – Adobe Illustrator Feedback ) for Mac (Mojave V10.14.3). Check out the bug they reported, and if that sounds like what you're experiencing, you can upvote the bug and add any comments that might help.

Thank you. That is the same as what I am experiencing.
