Public bug reported:

As described on document "ubuntu-screen-keyboard-tricks", see the link
below, you can anchor action buttons to OSK so that they will remain
visible above the OSK. However at the moment it is practically
impossible to click them because they fall down too quickly with OSK.
Either you do a very very fast click or place your finger over the
button and after OSK has disappeared slide your finger again over the
button and finally release it. Aren't these action buttons meant to be
click-able when they are above OSK? Now in practice they aren't.

A small sample app with OSK action button to demonstrate the problem...
