Could you please set focus on object list when new condition/action is added? The same for window when selecting actions conditions or expressions.

    I'm tempted to mark this as invalid, as I don't see why this is necessary? It's set to the search box so you can type a letter or two and narrow the objects down.

    Search box is trying to find text within string, while typing at object box does select object's with matching first letters. Actually it's rather a matter of habit. When you're typing with object box focused, things look more like an intellisense system -> you can select correct object/ACE and use arrows to navigate at the same time.
    I guess this can be considered invalid, since there "search" box, while it can't quick navigate in list, it can make special use of substring search (for example "pick by comparison" can be achieved by writing "by c" when 'object-list-focused' needs "pi" and right arrow).
