AbilityPicker - strange handling of wrong click

[LevelX2]

If the ability picker is open (e.g. if a permanent has two activated ability) and you click for some reason not at one of the possible choices in the picker but on a permanent or card instead, the ability picker stays open.
But as you click now on one of the choices the ability picker closes (as normal) but ignore your click. Can be quite frustrating as you sometimes tap now mana and click ok, without realizing the spell is not cast. So your mana is wasted.

Expected behaviour:
Best - The ability picker selects the choice with your click instead of only closing.
Second best -The ability picker closes as soon as you click at another card or permanent.

how to reproduce it? I mean is there any init.txt for such case?

To Reproduce:

1. Click e.g. on a bestow enchantment creature card on your hand.
2. The ability picker window opens, with three choices.
3. Click now on any other card/permanent outside the ability picker window. Nothing happens, the ability picker window stays open.
4. Now try to pick an ability from ability picker window (that's still open). You click on a choice and the window closes. But no ability is picked, Nothing happens.

Yes, easy reproducible. I believe it is related to losing focus on custom component.
What's the desired fix?
Easiest one - to close ability picker whenever area outside the box was clicked.
The other one - that is restoring focus - is more difficult: actually what happens - user clicks on ability but actually he doesn't and you need to emulate such ability clicking by translating area box coordinates to chosen ability option coordinates.

I guess best solution would be to let it open until user chooses an ability or the cancel selection. Because when I think about the situations I face this behaviour I guess nearly 100% of the situations I did reopen the ability picker and select the ability. But as you said, this is maybe the solution that is harder to implement.

So closing the ability picker as the user clicks outside the window is all the way better than the current behaviour of the function.

Maybe a possible solution is to make the window modal, so it can't loose the focus.

Was recently fixed.
