This is a new bug with maliit-keyboard that is affecting webbrowser-app. An invisible area was added in maliit to make it easier to dismiss with this MR: https://code.launchpad.net/%7Ethomas-moenicke/phablet-extras/maliit-plugins_invisible_toucharea/+merge/164925.
The problem is that touch events are not getting propagated to the widget that lives beneath the hidden area.

I tested this with nemo-keyboard, and it works great. nemo-keyboard is easy to swipe to hide but also allows keypress events to propagate to invisible area. Please apply the same technique as used in nemo to maliit to solve this issue.

This will affect the phone-app as well as contacts view will place the toolbar above the keyboard and you can't activate any buttons. You can try phone-app from here that has the functionality:
