Feature Request

It would be great to have a focus on the input field so that we do not need to use the mouse to click into the input field or to tab around until I have focus on the input field. Most other apps make it easy to directly type in the input field when I focus the app. Thanks :-)

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Signal Desktop App
2. Change focus to a different windows
3. Change focus back to Signal Desktop

Actual result:

No focus on input field

Expected result:

Focus on input field to be directly able to type in text
