Menu actions invoked from floating Projects/Files use wrong context

What happened

I'm using the Projects/Files views in a separate floating window. Up to NetBeans 15, when invoking an action from the menu (such as Team > Commit), the context of the action was determined from where the keyboard focus was. If the keyboard focus was on the editor in the main window, the action would be applied to the current file. When the keyboard focus was on a node in the Projects or Files tree, the action would be applied to that node.

Now in NetBeans 16, the action seems to be always applied to the current file in the editor, even if the keyboard focus is in the Projects or Files tree (in the separate floating window).

I suspect that maybe #4603 broke the previous behavior.

@errael: It would be great if you could take a look at this, if it's an unintended side effect of #4437.

EDIT: Sorry, meant to comment this on #7952.

Duplicate of #7952, which has better information.
