Title: focus stealing prevention fails for keyboard only when switching to firefox Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Occasionally, when I switch to Firefox from another program, the keyboard input does not switch properly, and so it appears as though my keyboard has simply stopped working -- the input is being sent to my previously-used program. The rest of Firefox works completely as expected, so sometimes I don't even notice it right away. I can fix this by switching to another program and then back to Firefox, or (as I discovered by accident) by clicking the printscrn button. I have not been able to identify a consistent pattern in when this happens, or if the way I switch programs affects whether the issue occurs.
