autoFocus prop for TextInput

I think it would be useful to be able to autofocus on a TextInput without jumping through the hoops of assigning it a ref. This becomes particularly painful when trying to override the Select component’s searchInput with a custom TextInput that automatically focuses when the select opens (see codepen for example).

Expected Behavior

I would have access to an autoFocus prop like <TextInput autoFocus />

Actual Behavior

I have to use a class component and use the componentDidUpdate() { this.forceUpdate() } hack to get the focus to work

I am seeing this behavior still. TextInput is accepting autoFocus but not doing anything with it. Tried to get around it with ref but it’s not accepting ref as a prop. @IanKBovard

I’m able to use autofocus. Here’s a codesandbox to play around with. Adding and removing autofocus from each field works on my end. https://codesandbox.io/s/cold-dust-9ti5f?file=/src/App.js
