--- Comment #1 from Thomas Pfeiffer <colomar at autistici.org> ---
For me this is quite simple: It only makes sense to show the keyboard as long
as its input is being used, i.e. - in our case - as long as a widget that takes
keyboard input has focus.
When I select a wallpaper, the activity name input field loses focus. Any
keyboard input I make afterwards goes straight into space. So the virtual
keyboard lost its purpose and should disappear.
Just hiding the keyboard when no input widget has focus should solve many of
the cases where the keyboard covers important elements without having any use.
So is there any reason for not implementing this behavior?
