It would be better if it was possible to deactivate this feature trough datepickerConfig instead of removing it altogether, as the OP suggests.

Usecase: We have a datepicker popping up when an input-field gets focus, but the focus is immediately lost to the popup. You'll have to click on the input-field a second time if you want to type a date.

This could be implemented by conditionally preventing the datepicker.focus event being broadcast.

Will this issue ever get fixed? The input field losing focus is a major problem for us, users always have to click twice if they want to type a date in the input field. It would be great if this was configurable...

Nothing is stopping anyone from opening a PR from being opened fixing this if it is desired - there are other much higher priority issues in need of tackling though, which is likely why there hasn't been any movement on this.

Thanks for the fix!
