Bug Description

Users without a hardware (for example tabletpc users or pointer-only users (a11y)) rely on onscreen keyboards for their typing. However, as dash seems to disappear on every left click, it is not possible for these users to type anything into the search box of dash.

Is there already a plan to solve the issue?

I also opened a thread in the ubuntu-devel-discuss list about the issue:
