I've just observed that OnBoard does not auto-show on any textbox within the Chrome or Chromium web browser (except for the URL text box), but appears to (so far) work perfectly within all text boxes in Firefox.

Also OnBoard does not auto-show for any text box inside Virtualbox's frontend (Obviously I don't expect it to work inside VM's themselves). Not that we need a situation for OnBoard to work when using the Virtualbox frontend, but any other apps under the same UI framework will probably be affected too. Actual text entry with manually shown OnBoard works fine - it's just the auto-show part that doesn't work.

I also echo that OnBoard fails to auto-show for the Unity Dash, but I can type within the Dash if I manually show OnBoard first before bringing up the Dash.
