PR Checklist

Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

This is highly based off the work done for resizing panes. Same logic applies - moving focus will move up the panes tree until we find a pane to move the focus to.

Validation Steps Performed

Opened a bunch of panes, kept moving focus.
