Public bug reported:
If I launch (eg) nautilus from gnome-terminal, the address bar gets
focus so I can press CTRL-L to immediately start typing in an directory
path, and if I launch (eg) gnome-calculator from gnome-terminal, the
data entry field gets focus so I can start typing in a calculation. This
is how these apps used to work if you launched them from ubuntu-dock or
the gnome-shell dash, eg in 18.04 and 18.10 and earlier in 19.04.
However, now in 19.04 when I launch these apps from the gnome-shell dash
or ubuntu-dock (or the latest dash-to-dock from git), I have to click on
them before I can do anything - eg typing CTRL-L in nautilus does
absolutely nothing.
Some other apps are also affected - eg if I launch gnome-terminal from
the dash, I have to click on it before I can start typing.
Not all apps are like this, though: eg with chrome and firefox I can
type CTRL-L to start typing in the address bar.
It's obviously not critical, because there's an easy workaround (click
on the app with the mouse first), but it's annoying and a regression.
