Bug 415338

SUMMARY
if i move my mouse over the bottom tabs while typing into the search bar, it doesn't show the search results

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Super or click on the application launcher icon, to open the "start menu".
2. Move your mouse over the bottom tabs, then start typing into the Search... field. (The exact order doesn't matter. Your mouse needs to be moving right after the first keystroke.)

OBSERVED RESULT
The first keystroke causes Application Launcher to switch to search results, and start hiding the bottom tabs. However, at first, the bottom tabs still respond to mouse movement (which causes it to switch from search results to tabs). After half a second or so, the bottom tabs disappear, and you're stuck on one tab which doesn't respond to the search bar.

This appears to be a race condition between "switch to search tab and hide tabs", but tabs still respond to mouse input.

EXPECTED RESULT
Typing while the mouse is moving over the bottom tabs does not switch to a different tab and ignore the contents of the search field. Perhaps the first keystroke into the search bar should cause the bottom tabs to *immediately* ignore mouse-hover events, or maybe lock the menu to the search tab regardless of mouse events to the bottom tabs.
