Should be fixed.

Is this the issue that we're still discussing about when to auto trigger
things? If so, that's still on the todo list. If not, then I'm afraid I
don't understand what you are asking me to do.

Hopefully done. Orca now tries to force focus mode for the compose
window and doesn't let you switch to browse mode in that environment.
Please see if this matches the NVDA behavior.

Should be fixed.
