Do we know what the desired behavior requirements are?
I'm thinking something like...
1. User taps screen
2. Check if event is in an editable text area
3. If yes, display caribou in half* of the screen where tap did ~not~ occur
4. If no, do not display caribou
5. If caribou is not displayed, sliding up from the bottom of the screen should
always be available in order to activate the on-screen keyboard.
(* Perhaps this could actually be changed to: display caribou in the
quadrant of the screen diagonal to where the tap occurred. But you have
to take screen size into account, so for smaller screens, the half
screen rule above may need to be used).

On-screen keyboard shows up on first touch even when touch does not

Bug description:
Impact
======
Copied from: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788188
"After using the keyboard (or bluetooth stylus), the first touch
gesture I make on the touchscreen always brings up the on-screen
keyboard, irrespective of whether the touch activates a text-field.
This is annoying, for instance when I am using the touchscreen on the
maps app (which is much more convenient than from the touchpad), or
when I am using the stylus and want to use a touch-screen gesture to
scroll to the next page."
