I can't reproduce the bug on my setup, GNU/Linux with an XFCE window
manager with "focus follows mouse" set. I've tried both with Emacs
29.1, and a fairly recent version from our git master branch.
Seeing as how "focus follows mouse" is set, does it make any difference
where on the screen the mouse is when you perform the various steps of
the bug recipe? Where was your mouse when entering the original string
and then attempting to enter the replacement string?
