The "Done" button doesn't always deselect when you close out of a Sign UI, making typing spaces difficult

      I was putting signs up to show where each fletcher is in my trading hall when I found out that typing a space into the signs is really difficult. The game thinks you are trying to close out of the Sign UI because in the new update it defaults to autoselecting UI elements for accessibility reasons. This doesn't work in the Sign UI though because you need to be able to use the enter and space buttons for typing in the sign. Even closing out the sign UI entirely oftentimes doesn't deselect the "Done" button, which causes you to be entirely unable to input spaces into the sign for some time. (This doesn't even require pressing tab in order to trigger this bug.)

       

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Interact with a sign and type some text, and hit tab
      2. Close out of the sign UI and reopen it
      3. Try putting spaces into the sign
      4. See if the sign UI kicks you out
      5. Repeat until successful reproduction. This won't always happen on the first try and I am not sure why it sometimes doesn't happen.

       

      Expected results

      Pressing space in the sign UI always behaves as expected and puts a space

       

      Observed results

      Pressing space in the Sign UI closes the sign UI sometimes because it defaults to selecting the "Done" button.

      Additional information

      This bug is closely related to MC-195474, but from what I can tell this bug has only started occurring in 24w03a.
