On macOS in latest Chrome and Firefox.

When in the split-pane markdown editor and you open the right-hand "Page Tags"/"Attachments" sidebar, it becomes impossible to select some text in the editor.

Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Configure Bookstack to use markdown editor
  2. Edit a page
  3. Click the page tags or attachments icon to open the right-hand sidebar
  4. You are now unable to select or edit some text with the mouse or keyboard

Expected behavior
Opening the sidebar should not prevent editing text.
