Title:
  video fullscreen playback emits keys (control/key sequences) into
  current foreground window

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Playing a video in full-screen mode (html5) emits keys into foreground ("ghost keyboard" inputs). 
  These key sequences affect the currently selected/foregrounded Window, e.g. the goneme-terminal flickers the text up and down, changes window focus and inputs control characters scrambling the typed commandline.
  Controlled typing on the commandline is nearly impossible this way, text is garbled (see screenshot attachment).
  Pausing the video stops this behaviour.
  This happens on a fresh profile without any extensions/addons.

  example youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHEHPRDVEp4

  I logged the keys with
  xev 2>&1|while /bin/true ; do read ans; echo $ans;date -Ins ;done > /tmp/xev.timestamped.log

  and add the output here as attachment. From the log it seems to be
  these type of repeating sequences (disregard beginning and end of
  file, since it is mouse over xev movements):

  Currently I doo not know how to debug this further, is there a
  possibility to debug the video playback in chromium browser?

  Thanks for looking into it,
  Martin
