--
If the filter doesn't match any packet and the "update the packet list in real
time" option is active, the focus goes always on the packet window. This makes
impossible to correct the filter _expression_, because when one tries to type
into the filter bar, the focus goes to the packet window. 

This issue doesn't happen neither when the filter matches any packet (the
packet window is not empty), nor when the "update the packet list in real time"
option is unchecked.

I checked this bug on both MAC OSX 10.10 and Linux Mint 17.3 (64 bit OS each).


The workaround is either to clear the filter _expression_ and retype it or to
disable the real time update.
