Auto-hide shelf remains visible until user interacts with window

Project Member Reported by kbr@chromium.org, Jan 18 (4 days ago)

Issue description

Google Chrome	73.0.3669.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Revision	5ca4eaf783225d46ce5f7837254f8bd96ee437b1-refs/branch-heads/3669@{#1}
Platform	11578.0.0 (Official Build) dev-channel eve

Please specify Cr-* of the system to which this bug/feature applies (add
the label below).

Steps To Reproduce:
(1) Enable auto-hide for the shelf
(2) Use trackpad to move mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen, revealing the shelf
(3) Quickly move the mouse up, out of the shelf area.

Expected Result:

Expect the shelf to disappear.


Actual Result:

Shelf stays visible until a click is made on the browser window.


How frequently does this problem reproduce? (Always, sometimes, hard to
reproduce?)

Always.


What is the impact to the user, and is there a workaround? If so, what is
it?

Annoying user experience, and a regression over previous Chrome OS builds, as far as I can tell. Workaround is to click in the browser window.

I _think_ this is working as it used to, and I think it's intended that the shelf remains visible until the user interacts with an existing window. kbr@ do you have any specifics about it behaving differently in a specific previous version of Chrome OS?

Summary: Auto-hide shelf remains visible until user interacts with window (was: Shelf doesn't auto-hide reliably)

I could have sworn that on Chrome 72 it auto-hid as soon as the mouse left the shelf region.

If this is WAI then feel free to close as WontFix.

This is WAI. 

We implemented this because if the user swipes up with gesture to show the shelf, then goes to move the mouse to the shelf, the shelf would hide.
