This is some strange behavior that is somewhat annoying when repeatedly searching for mods.
Steps to reproduce:

1. Open the mod browser (Mods > Install mods).
2. Write some query in the search box for which there are results (e.g. "upgrade").
3. Click on one of the results.
4. Click somewhere inside the search box after the query, such that the blinking marker appears after the last letter (it's simply easiest to reproduce this way).
5. Press "backspace".

Result: in about 80% of my attempts, after deleting a letter, the "install" button briefly becomes dark (pressed/disabled) and the focus goes back to the (refreshed?) list, from which point pressing backspace again doesn't do anything. I also noticed that this doesn't happen when the query contains 3 letters or less. The expected behavior is that the focus remains inside the search box until I click "Search" or one of the search results. (BTW, since the search is automatic, what's the point of this button?)

Tested on Windows 10.

Fixed for 0.16.25.
Thanks for the report!
