Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 16.04.3 and 17.10.1 holding down either shift key on a Dell
Latitude 7480 causes random mouse clicks to occur without being nowhere
near the touchpad with palms. No external mouse/keyboard connected.
Disabling `Tap to click` in `Mouse & Touchpad` settings makes the
problem go away. The problem is not present in 14.04.5, whether
installed or live CD.
How to reproduce:
1. On a Dell Latitude 7480 live boot (or install) one of the following images:
- ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso
- ubuntu-17.10.1-desktop-amd64.iso
2. Open `Mouse & Touchpad` and make sure `Tap to click` is enabled.
3. Click `Test Your Settings` and make sure window has focus.
4. Hold down either shift key and after a few seconds single/double clicks
start registering.
