Bug Description
Haven’t managed to reproduce with a standalone example yet, but I can reliably reproduce the following issue with the browser app on a tablet with a bluetooth keyboard connected (this needs to be on a tablet so that the wide layout of the app is used, for example with a Nexus 7 (flo) in landscape orientation):
1) launch the browser app with a bluetooth keyboard attached and ensure that the current tab is not a new tab
2) press Ctrl+T to open a new tab
Expected result: the address bar gets active focus so that the user can start entering a URL right away
Current result: the address bar gets active focus for a fraction of a second, then looses it. When that happens, pressing Ctrl+L (which forces focus on the address bar) doesn’t fix it.
I added some debugging to the browser (printing Window.
That situation can be remedied by using a bluetooth mouse to click on the address bar, which restores active focus on the QQuickTextInput.
