We have a scenario where we have inputs inside the sortable component. As the user types into the input the focus is lost constantly this is due to the Sortable component being re-rendered unnecessarily by Angular change detection. You can see an example here

Angular is moving towards immutable data structures and it is often the recommended practice. Therefore I believe the sortable component should be able to handle the scenario provided. This should be achievable by internally using a trackBy function to help Angular recognise when data hasn't changed. This should be accompanied by allow the consumer to provide their own function for tracking.

A similar issue was raised 5 years ago but wasn't adopted. In my opinion given the massive advancements in Angular and the introduction of Signals this becomes a more pressing issue now and arguably moves from the realm of feature request to bug.
