[Bug 1797381] Re: In tablet mode, step "Who are you" OSK hides when the passwordd field is focused

[Andrea Azzarone]

That's a known regression from commit https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME
/gnome-shell/commit/fc5ab4470445992b1ad4338290deb24e6b1c5ce2

My suggestion is to revert the commit even if upstream disagrees. Their
argument is that there are performances issue with the old behaviour (in
a nutshell AtspiEventListener spams the dbus channel quite a lot), my
argument is that osk is completly broken under xorg.
