Feature request: close 1P browser extension window after copying one time password
Hi, I noticed that one sites where 1P doesn't fill in the one time password automatically I have to, after copying the code in 1P browser extension, click besides the 1P browser extension window (in Firefox anyway) before I can paste the code into the field on the website.
This feels like an extra unnecessary step because in my usage flow copying a one time password is always the last step in 1P before login into a site. How do you guys see this?
1Password Version: 8.4.0
Extension Version: 2.1.7
OS Version: macOS 11.6

Hey janpeeters ,
We keep the popup open in case you need to copy stuff to places outside the browser (e.g. a 3rd party app with a login screen), that way it will be much more comfortable than having to re-open the extension to copy every field.
If you are copy-pasting into a website, then the extension will close anyway as soon as you focus into the field you're pasting into, like so:
- Open the extension.
- Copy the TOTP.
- Click the TOTP field on the website to focus it so that you can paste - 1Password's window will close.
- Paste.
Step 3 happens anyways, you can't paste into the field without focusing it so the extension's window should close up for you. Is that not what you are experiencing?
