Title:
  textfields capture vertical swipes

Status in “ubuntu-ui-toolkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When you try to swipe a page vertically to make the bottom or top visible, if you start the swipe with your finger over a text field, nothing will happen.
  This is confusing, as for a user there seems to be no good reason for the swipe to have failed. He might try it again starting from the same place with the same result. Then he might try to start the swipe from a different point, and it will work. It won't be clear that it failed only when the finger was over the textfield.
  And as far as I understand, this shouldn't be the case. The textfield will always have a single line of text, so you will never need to do a vertical swipe inside the component. This is different from a TextArea that might have more than one line, and then a vertical swipe starting on the text area will result on a change inside the component, so the user will understand that he needs to swipe somewhere else to make a different part of the page visible.
