697121 - Handle search entry focus properly when switching tabs

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Lucas Rocha (:lucasr)]

* When awesome bar is initially shown, the search entry should be focused and VKB should be visible;
* When switching tabs, VBK should be dismissed;
* If user clicks on search entry and starts typing while viewing bookmarks or history tab, the tabs should hide and the "All Pages" tab should be automatically selected.

Attachment: Keep focus on entry while typing on AwesomeBar

The first two items of the list above are already fixed. The only remaining issue was tabs stealing focus from entry which is fixed by this patch.

- The first two items work correctly
- About the 3rd item: when clicking on the search entry and typing "tabs" are hidden and "All Pages" screen is displayed, but another issue appears here: after 1 character is typed, the virtual keyboard is dismissed and user need to click on the search entry again to open keyboard.

Will log a new bug for this issue and close this one.
