Search/replace types replace text in both fields

[zsilet]

This morning I tried to search/replace using COSMIC editor.

1. I initially launched Search via Edit->Find menu, and typed the text I was looking for.
2. Then Edit->Replace, realizing that the search in 1) did not give me a replace option (would be nice to have something right next to the search dialog, but that's not the issue.
3. Once the search and replace text fieds were both visible, I clicked in the replace field and started typing.
4. ISSUE - the text I type in the replace field also modifies the search field (see image below)
   

The issue is easily reproducible, every time I use the mouse to move the cursor between search and replace, the cursor ends up active in both boxes.
If I tab between the boxes, the cursor moves correctly to the target.

Similar to pop-os/cosmic-settings#452.

Note that the issue can also happen whereby one cursor is in the main editor area and the other cursor is in the Seach box.

That's probably related to #185.

In addition to the above, I found this odd, likely related scenario:

• Attempting to copy/paste within the main window, with the Find window open will force the paste into the find window
• The string that will be pasted seems to be from the clipboard history (not the most recent item that was copied).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create file with two lines, containing text1 and text2.
2. Ctrl-C text1
3. Ctrl-V text1 (verify that copy/paste works, line1 now contains text1text1)
4. Ctrl-F, leave find term blank.
5. Ctrl-C text2
6. Ctrl-V, (problem) observe that text1 is pasted into the Find field (instead of text2 in the main window)

Agreed with @git-f0x that this issue is likely related to two others he mentioned.

It seems like all hotkeys end up going to the Find dialog, as I cannot save a file via Ctrl-S while the Find dialog is open either. Just realized that's likely the reason I've been having hit-n-miss time saving files in the editor.

Updating libcosmic should fix it.

It seems libcosmic is already updated for cosmic-edit, but the issue is still present.
