Actually that is one of the annoyances of the current drawshape text box
(.uno:DrawText) that moving to the frame w/ column insertion
(.uno:InsertFrameInteract)--as soon as you release the mouse cursor while
dragging box to size you loose ability to adjust and can only type the shape's
text. If you type nothing, and attempt to adjust the size the shape will close
and be destroyed.  So the draw shape text box has the unwanted behavior--text
cursor focus on drag release, it happens too soon and without control.

The Frame w/column on the other hand behaves sanely--you can position and
resize exactly as needed, and only when correct an <Enter> key will complete
the frame and enters the inscribed column with text cursor focus.

Don't see an issue here.
