Save dialog fails if you start typing file name before window is shown
When I press the ⌘+S shortcut and start typing the file name before the save dialog box shows up, I get a "The save file operation failed." error.
This is on version 25.4.1 on macOS Big Sur 11.4 on an M1 Macbook Air.
This has been an error for a long time, if not indeed for several years.

Thanks! I've been trying to figure out what was causing this error and I didn't realize it was because I was typing too quickly.
Adobe devs: I can reproduce this error consistently every time, if I hit Cmd+Shift+S (Save As) or Cmd+Opt+S (Save a Copy) and then quickly hit any key before the dialog pops up. I'm running Illustrator 2022 26.0.1 on macOS Catalina 10.15.7, on an early 2015 Intel-based Macbook Air.
