The expected action is to change focus to the "Replace" text input, like most other editors in the world. But instead, focus goes to the wiki search box. I suggest changing this so the focus goes to "Replace".

| FindAndReplaceDialog: don't use tabindex | VisualEditor/VisualEditor | master | +27 -2 |
Press tab a second time and it goes to the replace box. Sadly this is because Vector's search widget inserts itself into the tab order; in standalone VE this works perfectly.

FindAndReplaceDialog: don't use tabindex
@maiden_taiwan Only to the extent that using tabindex > 0 anywhere is kind of a bug, because it's not scopeable and so collisions are basically guaranteed.
