If I remember Vasilii's comments about the desktop case properly, we were allowed to let the bubble survive all navigation based on it being easily dismissable. This is not true of the mobile infobars.

The desktop decision has been made together with the UX team, I assume, so the next step here would be to loop in mobile UX experts.

Pasting a few comments that occurred in an email thread:

@mardini and @amyroberts
"I think having the infobar survive all navigations (including those invoked by the user) is a bit too distracting/aggressive on the small mobile screen (small compared to desktop)."

@vasilii
"The bubble on desktop listens to mouse clicks and closes automatically. Maybe we could do the same thing."

@vasilii: Regarding "The bubble on desktop listens to mouse clicks and closes automatically. Maybe we could do the same thing." 

Those were the other navigation events I thought the desktop bubble survives. So I am a bit confused now regarding which events dismiss the bubble on desktop and which don't. Could you shed some light on that please?

Thanks. 

The bubble survives all the navigation events started by the web site. However, the bubble closes as soon as there is a click somewhere. Thus, the key points
- we ignore the navigation events (all) for the bubble.
- we dismiss it only on a user gesture outside of the bubble. That's a click will close the bubble even if it doesn't trigger any navigation.
