Public bug reported:
Release: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
gnome-shell version 3.28.4-0ubuntu18.04.2
Directions to produce bug:
* Install Ubuntu 18.04 onto a laptop with a touchscreen.
* Install uxterm package.
* Upgrade software packages to most recent version.
* Confirm "Screen Keyboard" and "Typing Assist" are disabled in Universal
Access.
* Reboot.
* Log in and start "uxterm".
* Switch focus to another window.
* Touch the "uxterm" window.
Expected proper behavior: "uxterm" window gets focus, no other actions.
Actual inappropriate behavior: "uxterm" window gets focus, and screen
keyboard appears in defiance of "Screen Keyboard: off" setting and
presence of undetachable physical keyboard.
Empirical testing indicates that the screen keyboard doesn't appear for
every touch, but seems to appear for every touch to any area that
accepts text input, or perhaps for all areas that aren't internally
marked somehow as not accepting text.
This is a reappearance of Bug #1723857. The reappearance was noted in
comments 61 and 62 of that bug, but apparently ignored because the bug
is closed. I am creating this as a new bug per the guidance in
1723857#60: "This bug is closed so if you experience any problem at all
then please open a new one." by Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt).
