Public bug reported:

I might have fast fingers, but I'm sloppy on the keyboars.  I use alt-
tab frequently....  I also tend to tap alt accidentally afterward. This
has revealed some sort of bug in Unity.

Tap alt, you get to type a command, like that...

Alt-tab to switch to a new app, then tap alt (guess I'm a little
undecisive sometimes) and then tap alt again.  Now the focus is gone...
Dunno where...

Happens after alt-tab, alt alt, just about every time.

Subsequent alt, alt, returns focus where it belongs, but that's a lot of
alt tapping, and not entirely clear, took a little while to figure out
the exact key sequence, because I wasn't intending for focus to vanish,
It may be shifting to the application alt-tab switched from.

Ahahahahah that's where it goes. Was wondering why text showd up where
it didn't belong!

Guess it's a feature now, because it's been documented.  ;)
