If your inv/equipment is open with the standard browser window, then your storage is open by default. The client can't know if you want storage to remain open when you begin crafting, which closes the default inv/equipment window to show the transparent background inventory and craft window.
We could have crafting automatically assume you want storage open, but that could be just as annoying to crafting who are in the middle of crafting an order for someone and speaking to them. We can put it to a vote, and if the majority of players want it changed in this manner, we'll change it to auto open storage. Vote here.
