[PLUG] Thunderbird doesn't take focus sometimes

[Ben Koenig]

in GTK and Qt widget focus (and the text area is a widget) is very
customizable, its possible that something got missed since, as Rich
mentioned there is a more typical way to create a reply. But it sounds like
a PITA so if you can reproduce it you should bring it up on the thunderbird
forum and/or bug tracker. You shouldn't have to work around an obvious and
easily fixed bug.
