Component: Dynamic Dialog should not focus first focusable element on close
Describe the bug
Currently, if I open a dynamic dialog and scroll to the bottom of the content in the case where a scrollbar is shown and then click a button that opens another dialog, the first focusable element is focused. The problem is, if that element is above the fold of the scrolled area, when focus is applied, the content whips back up to the top which is not good UX.
It didn't do this on version 15. I have recently upgraded to version 17.18.9 and the problem exists there.
The problem is with this code in dynamicdialog.ts:
The assumption is being made that we want to focus the first element on close. Perhaps we can add a new property focusOnHide and set it to false by default so that it's not a breaking (breaking the UX) change?
