Hi,

So I don't know if I'm the only one, but I find the focus border that's being displayed on focused buttons and panels - when you click on them with the mouse - annoying.
But I don't mind the focus border for input fields.

With the current theme options, you can either hide this border completely or have it showing on everything that's in focus.

I would like the app to behave more like other web apps when it comes down to focus borders.
For example, on web pages in Chrome if you click on any other object except for input field, they don't show focus border. But when you list through them with Tab they do.
I would like that for VSCode too.

OR add another theme parameter focusInputBorder, so I can make focusBorder transparent, but still have the active input border which I like.

Example of what I mean:
