Discovered that it's not related solely to keyboard switching: focus
loss occurs when pressing any bound shortcut, for example volume
up/down. So, it is in 'media-keys' unity-settings-daemon plugin, not in
'keyboard' plugin.
Also, 'media-keys' controls keyboard layouts only in unity-settings-
daemon, upstream gnome-settings-daemon doesn't have code for doing this.

case BATTERY_KEY:
do_battery_action (manager);

+ case SWITCH_INPUT_SOURCE_BACKWARD_KEY:
+ do_switch_input_source_action (manager, type);
+ break;
/* Note, no default so compiler catches missing keys */
case CUSTOM_KEY:
g_assert_not_reached ();

Pressing keyboard shortcut to switch keyboard layout causes temporary

Bug description:
When pressing keyboard shourtcut for switching keyboard layout, focus
temporary switches from active text input to something else, then
restores back when releasing keys used to switch. Maybe even active
window loses focus, but window frame does not shows this (window
header remains to look active).
For example: when I press ctrl+shift here, when writing this
description, yellow frame disappears from text input box, text caret
disappears too; they appear again when releasing ctrl+shift. The same
occurs in all other programs, i.e. terminal.
It causes serious annoyance, for example in Twitter when losing focus
in Reply text box, reply rolls up and I have to click it again with
mouse and set caret to correct place each time I switch keyboard
layouts.
Other key combinations, not only ctrl+shift, also cause this.
