If you run the select all command inside the RichText, then immediately select the non-text block, the focus will return to the RichText component.

Gutenberg version - current trunk (bc3f367).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a post or page.
  2. Insert any block that uses the RichText component - Heading.
  3. Insert non-text block - Image.
  4. In the heading block, use select all command - CMD+A.
  5. Select the image block.
  6. Selection will move back to the Heading block.

I believe the selection change is triggered by the useSelectionObserver hook.

@ellatrix, any thoughts on how we can avoid this behavior?
