[MC-147513] Unable to focus anvil textfield by clicking

The bug

When placing items in an anvil, it does not allow me to select its name in order to change it. I tried using different items, including blocks, in the anvil, but the results were the same.

Next, there are problems with lags if you are going in minecart (I didnt have them in normal word or End, but just in the Nether).

And there is mabye problem with world generation ( see in attached picture, I found this in the plane village).

By clicking Tab you can change focus of the gui components to the item name text box, and rename an item

Done

Thanks, and confirmed fixed in 1.14 pre-1.

Textfield now always has focus as far as I can tell.

This bug has returned in snapshot 20w10a.

Can confirm it's back in 20w10a, and so this ticket should probably be re-opened. (It was also confirmed in a YouTuber's snapshot review video... I can't remember if it was Xisuma, Cubfan, or someone else, but I'd take that to mean thousands of people can confirm this bug now 😃 )
