Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Due to an input handling race, the first time users log into Unity on
  their system, the shortcut overlay may not close when clicking the "X"
  in the corner.  This leads to a poor user experience.

  [ Test Case ]

  1. Remove ~/.config/unity/first_run.stamp.
  2. Log into Unity.
  3. Shortcut hints overlay should be shown.
  4. Click on "X" in the corner.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  This is a workaround for a race, so some users may never see the race
  to begin with.  That said, no regression should be observed as in
  worse case, the shortcut hints still cannot be closed.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Original Description:

  In 14.04, the shortcut overlay would pop-out automatically on first boot.
  Although there is a close button on the top-left corner, it cannot be closed by clicking it.

  (it could be dismissed by the super key, or open a new window)
