Research direction
The bug is about the autocompletion popup being moveable by clicking elsewhere. Look for the popup component in the frontend code, likely in a file like `src/Autocomplete/` or `src/Components/`. Examine the event handlers for mouse clicks and how the popup position is anchored to a specific line. The fix should ensure the popup stays anchored to the line it was opened on, or that clicking elsewhere dismisses it rather than moving it.
