Android Chrome issue with menubuttons

Provide detailed reproduction steps (if any)
The issue can be reproduced using Chrome on Android by:
- Visiting the inline editor example
- Click on the body text below the image. [Edit: Ensure the Android on-screen keyboard is showing]
- Click on the font selection menubutton
✔️ Expected result
The menubutton menu should open
❌ Actual result
The entire toolbar disappears, as if the editor lost focus. This makes it impossible to use the menubutton.
Note: A similar behavior happens in the non-inline editor; the issue is just more obvious and problematic in the inline editor. In the basic editor, when the focus is inside the editor text, when a menubutton is clicked the first time the editor loses focus and the menu doesn't open. A second click will open the menu.
