I know they don't need to be the same - that's how the workaround 'Xmir
-flatten' works. However if they are not the same then the OSK will not
function correctly, which is unacceptable. Only acceptable as a
temporary workaround...

And we don't need to make the choice to implement X11 window management
in Mir, because the Unity8 WM design already requires that we do
(indirectly by the missing designed features we haven't implemented
yet).

The phrase "the shell" is correct, because that is what is deciding to
change the focus to the popup (in the absence of any hint not to). It's
also not correct for you to say that "Unity8 is not the X11 window
manager". Although I have indeed implemented WM things in Xmir, that is
only so much as to pass responsibility for window management on to the
shell. Admittedly it's a hybrid approach to attempt to suit Mir's design
as well as possible. However in the sense of who owns responsibility for
the WM decisions, that is the shell.

We have a Unity8/Mir design document that details a fix, and if we just
implement our intended design then this bug will go away.
