Description

While editing the column options of a memory line that displays a combo drop box of choices (Tone Mode, Tone, ToneSql, DTCS Code, DTCS Pol, Duplex, Mode, Tune Step, Skip, etc), keyboard input focus jumps to element 0 in the tab-order instead of returning to the treeview. This makes editing memories with keyboard input fairly tedious as one has to navigate focus back to the treeview, by pressing the 'tab' key numerous times, after each and every column edit. This is a product of the magical combo boxes that get created and destroyed (shown and hidden) when a column is being edited.

Focus should be returned to the treeview after an edit has been applied and the combo box is destroyed.

This bug is one in a potential series of keyboard UI interaction bugs.
