[Known 2795] Casting option menu should take focus

acdha

I noticed any annoying behaviour with a totemic druid:

1. Cast Spirit Animal
2. Switch to another character and give them orders
3. When the spirit animal casting completes, the spell-cast autopause will kick in but the animal selection menu doesn't appear – the entire action area will simply show the blank background texture.
4. At this point, any click or keyboard command will cancel the spell without effect

If you ensure that the druid is selected before the spell casts, the menu works as expected. I had previously noticed the same behaviour in a BG2EE multiplayer game but this happens in a normal single-player game.

This would also appear to be the case when auto-pause is disabled. & the only way for it to work at present is to not switch characters until the spell completes, otherwise the choice of spirit animal is not presented.
