[BUG] Buttons not firing after clicking into element having touch behavior even when behavior IsEnabled="False" (Mac Catalyst)

Current Behavior

Two Buttons have commands associated with them. These buttons are not within the area controlled by the touch behavior. Once we've clicked in the area with the touch behavior (even if the behavior is disabled), the buttons no longer run the commands. You must move the cursor outside of the current application window and return, and the buttons now fire.

Expected Behavior

Buttons should be active at all times and not impacted by clicking within the area that has touch behaviour.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Run the repo project within Mac Catalyt
2. Click either button to see it's name as an alert
3. Click inside one of the list items in the view
4. Click on either button (no popup)
5. Move the cursor off the active Window
6. Move the cursor back to the active Window and click the buttons to see the command active once more
7. Turn on Grid Behavior using the button
8. Click and hold an item in the list and then drag away like you want to cancel
9. Click the buttons. Now inactive.
10. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to reactive the buttons

Environment

- .NET MAUI: 8.0.21

Anything else?

iOS, Android and Windows work as expected.

I have very similar issue it might be connected. I have CollectionView when using TouchBehavior with LongPressCommand on every item in collection, it disables CollectionView selection functionality, setting IsEnabled="False" on TouchBehavior won't impact collection, basically TouchBehavior blocks CollectionView selection.
Would be nice if TouchBehavior work together with other controls or IsEnabled not only disabled commands but also touch capturing.
Only workaround that I found, put TouchBehavior inside some Grid on top, and when not needed, set Grid visibility to False.

I've just updated the Community.Toolkit.Maui, and the problem still exists on Mac Catalyst.

Have there been any updates to this?

This bug also occurs when using an external mouse for an iPad.
