Backbone Marionette focus event

I want to use focus/blur events to show/hide an area containing a textarea.

In my template:

<div class="area">
    <textarea/>
    <div class="actions">
        <div class="action"/>
    </div>
</div>

In my Backbone Marionette view:

events: {
    'focus .area': 'onFocus',
    'blur .area': 'onBlur',
    'click .action': 'onAction'
},

Why the focus does not work on my template when I do click on .zone div (but in the textarea instead) ? And why the click event is never executed (but the blur is instead) ?

The solution I found is to add tabIndex and make div.area as a form component:

<div class="area" tabIndex="0">
    <textarea/>
    <div class="actions">
        <div class="action"/>
    </div>
</div>
