In fullscreen (f11) on windows machine, Cannot interact with omnibar on new tab (ctrl + t)

Reported by z...@z-dxn.com, Dec 22 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open an webpage in fullscreen (f11)
2. Open a new tab (ctrl + t)
3. Attempt to type in the omnibar / address bar

What is the expected behavior?
Be able to search, or browse to a new page. 

What went wrong?
No interaction with application. After reducing from full screen to regular, attempted to type and no text was rendered still, had to click out of chrome and back in to type address.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 55.0.2883.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0

the search box displayed on the new tab page is unusable as well.

>the search box displayed on the new tab page is unusable as well.

Indeed!
The problem is that it tries to be smart and focus omnibar when we type (BTW this is distracting and bad UX) but since omnibar is absent it silently fails.

that was kinda what I was aattempting to point out, it also sucks you need
to lose focus after exiting full screen, and then re select the search bar
to interact with it.

I think that UX specialist that decided to adopt mobile Chrome behavior designed for small screens is wrong here: on a desktop computer with a large display the focus jump is unusual and confusing.

The problem however doesn't seem to be fixed easily because the focus jump is necessary to provide users with the full omnibox functionality. In order to replicate it within the bounds of the search input box it would require re-writing omnibox functionality in JavaScript which is hardly a viable option.

Maybe it's possible to show the real omnibox over the search box with the same dimensions?

This is heavily related to bug 243926.  In that, users are complaining that they cannot enter text into the box on the NTP.  In this, users are complaining they cannot get to the omnibox to enter text.  If we fix either (though likely both have the same fix), all users will be happier.

I am encountering this on Mac OS X,  but it is inconsistent. It just happened again, but now I cannot replicate it.
