[Feature] Autofocus on text input area when activating window w/ hotkey

[dsernst]

Feature description

It would be a bit smoother and easier if the main ChatGPT text input box was autofocused as soon as the window is opened with the hotkey.

Motivation

Smoother and easier way to invoke chatgpt, more like the default Cmd+Space Spotlight search on Mac.

Alternatives

Thinking this could be possible with some custom javascript to find the element and focus on it. Something like:

function focusOnInput () {
  // This currently works because there is only a single `<textarea>` element on the ChatGPT UI page.
  document.getElementsByTagName("textarea")[0].focus()
}

1. And then calling this function when the Open Window hotkey is pressed.

2. Or Perhaps another option would be to hook into document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", focusOnInput), if the Page Visibility API works for this sort of application. Unclear if this would work when bringing the window into focus, but if it does, it would work for opening the window with a mouse or using the Application Switcher too (Cmd + Tab).

Got this working! By adding to the main.js custom user script file:

document.addEventListener('visibilitychange', () =>
  document.getElementsByTagName('textarea')[0]?.focus()
)

Looking into where in the code this file is written, in order to make a PR so others can benefit from this as a new default.

Looks like this is where that file's default contents are being written?

Thank you for the suggestion. This file is created during the application initialization and will not take effect for existing users since main.js already exists. I can consider adding it to the core script in the next version.
