ContextMenu click will loose focus

[effad]

Expected Behavior

When right-clicking a CodeArea with context menu (or even without one) that lives in a container that can itself have the keyboard focus, the focus should not be lost by the CodeArea.

When using a (JavaFX built-in) TextArea focus is not lost.

I presume that either the event must be consumed or CodeArea should accept focus upon right-click (it does not at the moment)

Actual Behavior

Focus is lost.

Reproducible Demo

import org.fxmisc.flowless.VirtualizedScrollPane;
import org.fxmisc.richtext.CodeArea;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.ContextMenu;
import javafx.scene.control.MenuItem;
import javafx.scene.control.TitledPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class ContextMenuFocusBug extends Application {

	private CodeArea area;

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        area = new CodeArea("Right-click me!\n");
        setupContextMenu();
    	TitledPane container = new TitledPane("Nice", new VirtualizedScrollPane<>(area));
        primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(container, 400, 500));
        primaryStage.setTitle("Losing focus on right-click");
        primaryStage.show();
    }
    
    private void setupContextMenu() {
		ContextMenu contextMenu = new ContextMenu(
			new MenuItem("Test")
		);
		contextMenu.setStyle("-fx-font-family: 'Droid Sans';");	// hack to get regular styling in context menu
		area.setContextMenu(contextMenu);		
	}

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }
}

Environment info:

• RichTextFX Version: 0.10.4
• Operating System: Linux (Fedora 31)
• Java version: 13

A possible workaround:

        area.addEventHandler(MouseEvent.MOUSE_PRESSED, e -> {
        	area.requestFocus();
			e.consume();
		});

Thanks for reporting and for the demo, will submit PR to fix.
