keyboard re-appears in webbrowser after dismissing

I can reliably reproduce the issue, tentatively confirming for both oxide and ubuntu-keyboard until we investigate and find out where the issue lies.

I suspect this might also be part of the cause behind bug 1395775, since we get some similar behaviour there with scrolling making the keyboard reappear (in addition to main issue of the keyboard still being displayed after leaving twitter's compose page).

Seeing this issue a lot, not just on gmail. It's quite easy to reproduce. Just load a web page that has a text field and other content. Move cursor into the text field. Swipe the keyboard away. Then try to scroll the page.

Expected result:
- I can start scrolling the page without the keyboard popping back up

Actual result:
- As soon as scrolling starts, the keyboard re-appears.

Seems like the problem is we are not releasing focus correctly on the field when we close the keyboard so that when scrolling starts it thinks it has a new focus event.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Just tested again with oxide built from trunk (revision 1013), the issue is still there.

Thanks for fixing. :)
