Adds support for text buttons that capture text input, while the rest of the UI stays interactive. This is useful for example for filter buttons in popups that are used for searching. Current search popups are an ad-hoc implementation that doesn't use the normal widget system (and thus are quite limited). For the brush assets project this is important to allow quickly popping up the brush asset shelf popup, immediately typing to search a brush, and activating a brush with a single click (rather than having to confirm text input first). All UI elements stay interactive with hover feedback, changing asset library and catalogs is possible, tooltips and context menus can be opened, and any text input is still sent to the search button. Normal search popups already keep their search results interactive like this during text input, but are too limited because they don't use our widget system. For example custom layouts are not possible with them. With this feature implemented, we could consider rewriting them to use the widget system, removing the ad-hoc implementation.
