[Bug 34012] Backspace causes applet to lose focus when activated with hotkey

Public bug reported:

Affects: deskbar-applet (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Let's say I use the hotkey to activate the deskbar applet, and I type a
search string but decide that wasn't what I wanted to search for. I hit
backspace rapidly. If I hit backspace when there is nothing in the text
entry widget, I would expect, like other text entry widgets, that it
would simply do nothing. However, what instead happens is the applet
loses focus back to the window that had focus before the hotkey was
activated.
