Inconsistent behavior when using search in the dash

[Pat McGowan]

Seen in the app scope and the today scope

Select search icon
The text field opens, the category list is displayed and the osk comes up
Hit cancel
The text field closes, but the osk is still shown

Hit search again
The text field opens with no categories shown
Hit cancel
Text field hides, osk hides

[Michael Sheldon (michael-sheldon)]

It looks like although the field is hidden, focus isn't removed from it. If you start typing after having pressed cancel then input is sent to that field and it reappears.

[Michael Sheldon (michael-sheldon)]

Also, it seems that it always cancels correctly when there's already some input in the field, it's only when the field is empty that the keyboard remains active.
