When pressing any global keyboard shourtcut (configurable via System
settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts; i.e. for switching keyboard layout,
volume up/down), focus temporary switches from active text input to
something else, then restores back shortly. Maybe even active window
loses focus, but window frame does not shows this (window header remains
to look active).

For example: when I press ctrl+shift here to switch keyboard layout,
when writing this description, yellow frame disappears from text input
box, text caret disappears too; they appear again when releasing
ctrl+shift. The same occurs in all other programs, i.e. terminal.

It causes serious annoyance, for example in Twitter when losing focus in
Reply text box, reply rolls up and I have to click it again with mouse
and set caret to correct place each time I switch keyboard layouts.

Other key combinations, not only ctrl+shift, also cause this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open for example gedit
2. Press Ctrl+S
3. Press Create Folder button
4. Try to change keyboard layout or volume up/down
5. Focus will be removed from new folder, folder will not be created
Actual Results:  
Focus is removed from new folder, folder will not be created.


Expected Results:  
Layout changed, folder name is on desired layout, folder is created and named 
as user wants.

This bug exists at least in Ubuntu (see https://bugs.launchpad.net
/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1244090 for more reproduce scenarios ),
RedHat 7 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1091628). The bug
is reported to upstream too
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700316) with no luck.
