Description

Describe the current behavior

Using TAB to move focus from one field to the next, the Card view won't scroll so the focus gets out of sight.

Steps to reproduce

See demo here.

Describe the expected behavior

It would be convenient that the Card view auto-scroll to follow focus, as Grist does in table view.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the Card view component's focus handling logic. Compare with the Table view's auto scroll implementation to understand the missing mechanism. Look for event listeners on focus change and scrollIntoView calls.
