[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1533317@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package webbrowser-app -
0.23+16.04.20160122-0ubuntu1

---------------
webbrowser-app (0.23+16.04.20160122-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Automatically focus the address bar when opening a new tab in wide
    mode (instead of inferring a "desktop" form factor). This is not
    exactly the correct fix (which would require the QInputInfo API),
    but is better than the current situation anyway. (LP: #1533317)
  * Ensure that only one instance of the app is running. (LP: #1535199)
  * Fix failing autopilot test. With recent changes in the UITK, swiping
    a non-swipeable item to the right activates it. (LP: #1534139)
  * Fix undefined reference when dragging a bookmark from one folder to
    another one.
  * Show the share action if Ubuntu.Content is available, regardless of
    the form factor.

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

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Fix Committed
Status in canonical-pocket-desktop:
  In Progress
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

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.
