I was able to reproduce this in Firefox 135.0 (64-bits) but there're some additional steps in a clean instance.

Steps to reproce:

  • Go into the Search view
  • Execute some searches, something around 3 or 4 times
  • Clear out the search query input.
  • Click inside the search query input field.
  • Click horizontally centered below the query input (where the drop down would be).

Some obervations:

It seens the DOM are using double clicks to display the dropdown options for the Search Field.
If you click in the Search input and than click and hold in any other input field the dropdown the Search fields shows its autocomplete dropdown
