Have you considered the case where a TextField is focused by default when its view is shown? As soon as the view is
shown the keybord will pop up, even if the user does not plan to edit anything. I just experienced this when I
exchanged the Label in the HelloGluon example against a TextField. A lot of strange things then happen. The keyboard
pops up, it hides the Gluon nag screen, if you close the keyboard and the nag screen you still see these edit markers
and all this just because this text field was focused by default. To my opinion the keyboard and the edit markers
should only be shown when the user actually clicks into the text field and thus indicates that he really wants to edit
something. I also noticed that after the keyboard was shown I could not normally close the application anymore. (This
was on Android with a Galaxy Tab 4)
