If you search the web on this topic you will find that hundreds of people have been perplexed by this behaviour for over a decade, patches have been supplied upstream, and yet the problem persists: There is no control evident which allows one to select the widely desired behaviour, i.e. to prevent unwanted pointer inputs while typing. A more aggressive approach to resolving such a wide spread and severe usability issue seems warranted, and the question suggests itself: If not here, then where?
