System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.22621-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 528.49

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.6.0 Alpha, branch: main, commit date: 2023-03-03 23:37, hash: d0cfbc23db81
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
The actual mechanics of the save dialog window is not a real bug but annyoing and can cause unwanted changes saved by accident. When I save a scene and the mouse pointer is outside the window, Blender will execute shortcuts instead of using the scene name field properly. I recommend to remove this "feature" because it can cause unwanted changes to the scene which will be saved by accident.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Save Scene
Click on scene name field
Move mouse pointer outside the Save window
Type name of scene

Result: Blender will not use the name field but executes shortcuts when typing.

I believe #105446 will address this issue. If you click inside the name field first, and then let your mouse drift outside, typing will work as expected after that patch lands.

Shortcuts will still be active if you don't first click into that field though even after that patch.
