Composer | Reopen recipient list on a second To/Cc click

[BrianGenisio]

Summary

After you pick someone on To or Cc, the field stays focused. A second click on that field did not reopen the people list, so you had to click away and back first.

The row mousedown handler now reopens the list when the input is already focused.

Changes

The list used to open only on focus. Clicks on the input itself were ignored so the caret could land naturally. After a pick, focus never fires again, so the list stayed closed.

The handler still ignores chip-remove and option clicks. For a click on the already-focused input, it calls openRecipientMenu without preventDefault, so native caret placement is unchanged.

Test plan

• Compose a new message
• Click To, pick someone
• Click To again without clicking elsewhere. Remaining people should appear
• Pick a second person, then click To a third time. The list should open again
• Repeat the same flow on Cc
• Removing a chip should still only remove that person

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The recipient-row mousedown handler now lets clicks on the input follow normal focus behavior and reopen suggestions when the input is already focused. Clicks elsewhere in the row still focus the input and move the caret to the end. Clicks on removal controls, options, and the menu remain excluded.
