Option to disable closure of chat/block interface when taking damage

Hi! One of the most annoying things in Bedrock is when you are typing a long message to another player and... suddenly another mob/player hits you, the chat cancels and you forget what were you trying to say. Or when you are doing something in an anvil and it happens. It is helpful sometimes, but in repetitive cases it turns unnecesary.

There should be an option/gamerule that disables this. (ex. /gamerule damageInterfaceClosure). And, I know when a mob hits you repeatedly it doesn't cancel, but it is not enough when a mob/player stops attacking and then starts over. This would improve Bedrock interface. Thanks!

    I definitely agree. I play on Windows 10 edition with my friends and literally, this happens so many times, I've been hit so many times by mobs while typing, and I have lost hundreds of chat messages because your chat closes when you take damage. This is really getting on my nerves since Windows 10 edition is on PC, and Java is also on PC, so why does Java not have that absurd feature, but Windows 10 does. There should at least be an option to toggle that on or off incase if some people, such as mobile players, would like to keep it on. You don't know how frustrated I am right now, and my friends have also gotten disturbed with this same issue. But anyways, I hope people see this suggestion and help us out. Thanks for your patience.

    it has been like six years or longer and this is still an issue. i'm trying to input kill commands while mobs are on me and the chat still closes upon getting hit two times in the menu. this version of minecraft is horrendous
