Interesting - thanks for posting this up. I'm seeing this as well in our own example but only if I run a finger along the keyboard - presumably yours has more data so the issue is more apparent.
I'm not immediately sure what we can do about this. The draw of the table is causing the footer to be reinserted into the document - which is causing the focus to be lost (see this comment in the code).
What we should perhaps do it check more closely if the reinsert is required. But that isn't going to solve the issue in all cases.
