Using recipe book resets furnace progress

Example:
I put 32 Cobblestone into the Furnace and add Fuel. Now I open the recipe book and click on cobblestone (assuming I have more in my inventory). This will insert the cobblestone into the furnace slot, but abort the current smelting progress.

I believe the issue is caused by calling net.minecraft.recipebook.ServerPlaceRecipe#clearGrid before placing the items into the (1x1 furnace) grid. This momentarily invalidates the recipe, causing the progress to be reset:
net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.AbstractFurnaceBlockEntity#setItem is called because clearGrid sets the slots empty, which removes the cookingTimer.
