Research direction

Search for the QuickType view, its input, and the handlers for adding the first shortcut or removing the last one. Reproduce both cases and trace the redraw; done means the input retains focus after either operation and the existing behavior still works.

Description

bug

When adding the first shortcut, the view redraws (which I don't love the reanimation) but importantly, the focus that was on the input is lost. This also happens when the last is removed.
