Widget focus problem about platform HOT 5 OPEN

Hey @if-kenn and @andyg5000! 👋

Sorry about the delay here. I'll take a look at getting that focus-stealing fixed up and get back to you shortly.

@adunkman can you please respond? For something that is suppose to help productivity and the entry of time keeping, this bug is seriously impacting the use for our engineering team. It even seems like it got worse recently as it immediately now takes the focus.

You can also reproduce the issue in Chrome without any custom code:

1. Load https://platform.harvestapp.com/platform/timer
2. Start a timer
3. Remove focus from the "stop timer" button
4. Wait and watch the "stop timer" button steal focus (~ 1 minute)

Hey again! 👋

Looks like you can stop this with the closable=false query parameter. It will remove the cancel button and it won't take focus at all.

I'll always ask around internally about making this the default behavior. It seems like that would be desirable since the cancel button is only useful in a dialog/iframe.

Let me know if that doesn't work out!

@braddunbar thanks, it looks like the British version of the word was being used closeable instead of closable!
