Comment:

 Just added a starter patch for this one (and a quick revision). A few
 things to note:

 1. By the time the click event fires, focus already appears to have been
 lost, so I'm using the mousedown event to track the previously focused
 element and add and identifying data attribute. Open to better ways of
 doing this.
 2. It may make sense to split this out into a more generic JS function
 that can be applied generally to a wider variety of events for which this
 behavior is desired. Would love some additional opinions/thoughts on
 whether or not this is worthwhile, feasible.
