Comment (by joedolson):

 I can see a good argument that the `focus` state of adminbar items isn't
 clearly a "focus" state, since it doesn't match other standards of focus
 state across the WordPress admin.

 In my opinion, the solution to fix this is to make the focus state adhere
 more closely to other focus states, so that the meaning of the highlight
 is more clear.

 This is a pre-existing issue, and not specific to the command palette
 trigger, though the fact that the command palette is at a significant
 remove from the admin bar probably makes it more obvious. For any dropdown
 menu in the adminbar, if you tab into it, then hit `esc`, it will close
 the menu and focus the parent item, leaving the same effect.

 Currently, the default focus shadow is hidden in the adminbar; perhaps we
 need to just reconsider that, so the behavior is more consistent with
 other focus.
