Popup dismissed when annotating

Codex Browser annotation styling is fixed in the latest update, but selecting an element inside an open popup still triggers the page’s outside-interaction dismissal. The popup closes immediately while the annotation frame remains at its former position, outlining empty space. Annotation mode should suppress page blur/outside-click effects and preserve the popup state.

Popup dismissed, blue frame around non-existing element.

Reproduced with HeroUI and MUI in Next.js/React apps, not customized, implemented by the book.
