Bug Description

The Header component added to a Page in a PageStack will prevent key press events from reaching the underlying Page when it is the component that has keyboard focus.

08:35 < zsombi_> mhall119: key events should also go to non-focused items...
08:36 < zsombi_> mhall119: they don't seem to...
08:36 < mhall119> zsombi_: what I'm trying to do is catch an F5 key press on a
                  page to refresh it's content, but if I clicked on the header
                  instead of the content of the Page, it won't work
08:37 < zsombi_> mhall119: right, as keys seem to go only to the focused item,
                 in which case it'll be the header...
08:37 < mhall119> zsombi_: currently my code looks like
                  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10815509/
08:39 < zsombi_> mhall119: we should have sthing in the header, like
                 Keys.forwardTo: []

We have a new PageHeader component, that will be used as a child of the Page, so there is no longer a need to forward the keys from the header to the Page. See https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/blog/2016/02/24/pageheader-tutorial/ for a quick introduction how to use the PageHeader.
