The page search input in Chrome is moved around instead of the application window. This only occurs when the input has focus.

Thanks for reporting. Typically I don't make special cases in Rectangle, and this is a scenario where Rectangle is working as intended. From this perspective, it is a Chrome implementation detail that this search bar window is moved around via the macOS accessibility API. My recommendation is to report this to the Chrome team.

With that said, I'm not opposed to merging a pull request that makes Rectangle account for this, but I wouldn't have it enabled by default since special cased behavior on other apps is inherently fragile.
