Problem with keyboard focus when mail window is up

[Top Quat]

It seems that when I've got the mail tool window up in game, that the keyboard focus stays on the mail window making it impossible to maneuver when sailing while the mail tool is active.

It would be nice if I could pause when composing a mail, click outside the mail window to shift focus, maneuver my ship in the OW, then go back to the mail screen.

Really, Now how is that going to work?

This is a REAL TIME game, you can't "Pause" to send off a message.  Here's an idea, sail/Fight first, email later.  

I can see it now, middle of a PVP fight and suddenly everything pauses so you can send off a email..."Not now BRAH, in a fight"

Or in a middle of a port battle and nobody is moving because someone clicks on the email button so they can drop the captain's log.

Or a ship stuck in the middle of the ocean because the captain is firing off a email...

 

Was this a REAL suggestion or are you just trolling?

Well.... I know I'm pretty dumb. But I'm not so dumb that I try to send mails while I'm in a BATTLE. I guessed you missed the following part of the post...l

How about sending mails when sailing along in the OPEN WORLD when there are islands or other things that need to be navigated around?
