Description
Linked issue: #5784
Problem
As mentioned in the linked ticket and the comments, the date range picker has an issue in it's refocus logic. If we select a start date, the focus should remain in the selected start date, as the selected date is not complete, so that user can use keyboard arrows to select the end date. But now for each date selection, regardless of

, we always change the focus back to date input on selection.Changes
