The inline group/repeater renderer feeds vuedraggable an item key from a WeakMap, because rows loaded from the server carry no _id. updateRepeaterItem rebuilt every row with a fresh object spread on each keystroke, so the WeakMap missed and minted a brand new key, which remounted the whole row and dropped the input focus after a single character.
Inherit the existing drag key onto the replacement row object so the key survives for the whole life of the row. Values that match no option still fall through to the previous coercion, so invalid input keeps reporting a precise error, and rows that already carry an _id continue to key off it.
Covered by a new contract test that extracts the real repeaterDragKey and updateRepeaterItem from AksField.vue and drives them through a simulated typing session. Full suite: 661 tests passing.
