Bug Description
When typing in text, a text box or text field is selected. But when one selects a new font, size or other option, one is not permitted to continue to type even though the box /looks/ like it's still selected.
Either:
a )The text box should loose 'text' focus and not have a cursor or the box that marks it's editability. or
b) The user should be allowed to continue to type, giving the focus back to the text box from any of the text tools. or
b) Both.
