Description

Sometimes you will not be able to edit text in search field.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create new tab with 2 lines: foo and bar.
2. Press Ctrl-F. Type "foo" in search field in bottom pane. Then press Escape to close the pane.
3. Press Ctrl-F again. Press End or Right-Arrow keys on the keyboard - it will not do anything. The cursor will be just blinking in the very start of search field.

Versions

Atom 1.34.0 ia32. Windows 7.

Thanks for opening the issue in this repository 👍

I'm positive there's an issue very similar to this but was having trouble with search - we'll close if we find it later but confirmed for now with 1.34.0 on macOS 10.12.6.

Confirmed on master too. Seems the key here is to not press enter in the search field, causing the first result to be selected in the editor. When text is selected in the editor, the search field is focused and selected correctly. Otherwise, the cursor goes to the front of the search field and seems like it's stuck but it actually moves as expected if you arrow right a couple times and type a letter.
