Bug Description

Using the ota8 candidate, go to settings -> startpage and type an invalid url (e.g "bug"), the "set" button is disabled but if you hit "enter" on the osk it seems to try to validate it and dismiss the osk, the keyboard should probably stay open in this case

This seems to be a default behaviour of the TextField component, that removes focus from the field when validating it from the OSK, thus hiding the OSK.

Ideally we would use a validator on the field, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to specify a custom validation function, the closest we can get is a RegExpValidator, but that won’t work for us.

Not sure how to prevent the text field from emitting the accepted() signal when the URL is not valid.
