Problem/Motivation

This issue is pretty specific as it requires a combination of multiple modules, but I figured it may help others to report it anyway. The new CKEditor 5 uses an absolute positioned overlay for their link input. When a CKEditor 5 instance is used inside a Bootstrap Modal, it is not possible to focus the link input as Bootstrap seems to block any focus outside of the modal when it is active.

Steps to reproduce

- Install Drupal with the Bootstrap theme and enable modal bridging
- Install CKEditor 5, Layout Builder and Layout Builder Modal
- When editing a block in Layout Builder that has a CKEditor instance, you will not be able to focus the link input field

Proposed resolution

Use the 'shown.bs.modal' javascript event to move the CKEditor overlay inside the modal so it can be interacted with.
