Comment (by arush):

 @Alexstein Narrator is reporting "unable to take focus" when attempting to
 edit text within blocks. This means that the screen reader, (or any other
 assistive tech for that matter), is unable to programmatically gain focus.
 If need be I can take this discussion over to GitHub because there was a
 related issue on this filed back in August. The product designer is going
 to hate this, but is there any way you guys can add back the focus outline
 that was removed just before the WP 5.6 release?
