But if I reach the bottom of the document, and wrap search and find again, then reach what I was looking for, the Find dialog does not have focus, and hitting Esc does not make it go away.

Set it to autowrap
https://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#search then you don't
have another dialog stealing the focus.

Otherwise I think its just how GTK works, the focus returns to the
parent when the extra dialog is closed.
