460113 - can't exit Fennec while typing in the urlbar

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Daniel Brooks [:db48x]]

When you're typing into the urlbar and the autocomplete popup/window/thingy is open, hitting the close button in the titlebar causes the close animation but doesn't actually close the app. Since there's no way to dismiss the autocomplete thingy except by loading a webpage, this is fairly annoying.

Pressing the "esc" hard button will dismiss the panel

"esc" button == (bottom button on left side of case)

Ah, that's good. It still shouldn't prevent the app from exiting though.

it is mainly because autocomplete grabs focus for n810. It should be not a problem in n800, once we prevent this grabbing if vkb is up.

You can also click on a "dead" area (some piece of it without a link) of the awesome bar to dismiss it.
