Screenshot of the virtual keyboard and panel overlapping

SUMMARY
If one has a panel on the bottom edge and focuses a text entry while the panel is floating, it will not de-float when the virtual keyboard opens.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable floating panel on bottom edge
2. Open an application, not full-screen
3. Focus a text entry with touch

OBSERVED RESULT
Panel does not de-float, but the virtual keyboard is positioned against the de-floated position, creating a small overlap.

EXPECTED RESULT
Either the panel should de-float when the virtual keyboard is active. Alternatively, the virtual keyboard could positioned to play nice with a still-floating panel, but I feel that would be somewhat more complicated.
