902119 - Make the behavior consistent between swiping and hitting the home button

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Homescreen, defect)

Description

[Vivien Nicolas (:vingtetun) (:21) - (NOT reading bugmails, needinfo? please)]

Steps to reproduce:
 - click on the e.me search bar
 - navigate away by swiping to the right

Observe that the keyboard is dismised

# Behavior 1:
 Next steps:
   - navigate back using the finger

 Actual result:
   - the e.me shortcuts are displayed

# Behavior 2:
 Next steps:
  - navigate back using the home button
 
 Actual results:
  - the e.me results are hidden


For simplicity I tend to think the results should be hidden as soon you live the page for now but this is really a UX call...

Here is my suggestion:

# Behavior 1:
 - click on the e.me search bar is selected but nothing typed in the search box
 - navigate away by swiping to the right
 - navigate back using the finger
 - the e.me search box and smart collections w/ no keyboard

# Behavior 1a:
 - click on the e.me search bar and something is typed into box and may or may not be searched with results
 - navigate away by swiping to the right
 - navigate back using the finger
 - the e.me search box with search entry and results displayed with no keyboard

# Behavior 2:
 - click on the e.me search bar is selected but nothing typed in the search box
 - navigate away by swiping to the right
 - navigate back using the home button
 - the e.me search box only displayed (as in original state of the home screen)


# Behavior 2a:
 - click on the e.me search bar something typed or typed and searched
 - navigate away by swiping to the right
 - navigate back using the home button
 - the e.me search box only displayed (as in original state of the home screen)

We're on the same page, I just wanted to clarify some other states too.

After discussing this issue with Vivien and Ami, we have come to conclusion that the current behavior is sufficient and changing it will introduce risk.

Principles:
1. Clicking home button while away from landing page - always returns to landing page.
2. Swiping back to landing page (regardless of keyboard state)
   * If Evme results were displayed, keep it that way.
   * If Shortcuts were displayed, return to landing page.

The basic guideline is - if the user typed a query or clicked a shortcut - his intent was clear.
Clicking on the searchbar on the other hand is exploration only and being taken back to landing page makes sense.
