Actual results: In the new tab created from the separated window, every text box does not displays the blinking cursor in it, giving doubts on the selected text box. Expected results: The text boxes from the merged window should contains the blinking cursor.

Mike, it sounds like this and bug 1404713 are regressions from bug 1362866. Any ideas? Could this have been fixed since then?

Hard to say, since I can't seem to reproduce the issue locally. Perhaps I'm misunderstand the STR... is the symptom that carets _never_ appear after the tab is moved into the new window, or that the focus is removed from the text input after the merge?

On a window, you must select a text input box (so that the caret appears). After merging this window with an other one, the caret disappear. We are still able to write, so the focus is not removed from the text input. Unfocus/focus the whole window seems to solve the problem, in that way the bug looks very similar to the bug 1404713 you cited.
