[Bill Filler <1533317@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've confirmed this is an issue with a Nexus 4 with keyboard and mouse
connected to a monitor, running r112 PD build

I'm seeing the following:
- in large mode, with tabs across the top
- press ctrl-t to open a new tab

Expected result:
- url field should be focus and you can start typing immediately

Actual result:
- url field is not focused
- ctrl-l doesn't even work to bring you there as it should

I think the rule should be if we are in expanded mode with tabs on the
top, then creating a new tab should always focus the url field

Title:
  Address bar does not get focus when adding a new tab

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in canonical-pocket-desktop:
  New
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Expected Result:
  When adding a new tab via the button or Ctrl + T, the address bar is automatically focused so that users can immediately type the URL.

  Current Result:
  When opening a new tab, the new tab page is shown with bookmarks and top sites but the user can't type immediately the URL they want to go to.

  
  This might be more appropriate in windowed mode since most likely a physical keyboard exists thus making it easier for the users to input the URL when adding a new tab. In staged mode, focusing the address bar will show the OSK which might not be desirable if the user wants to select from the bookmarks or top sites instead of inputting its own URL.
