Typing with a fast pace into the field lead to omitting of characters (sometimes) #27

Description

@ahoehma

It seems the filter input field looses focus for a short time whenever a request is sent to the server. In this time frame a typed character is not accepted.
This leads to the situation that the inserted text is not complete, if you type with a normal / fast pace

I'm using Vaadin 7 version.

I tried to workaround this effect with a bigger delay ... I set it to 300ms.

But my customer give me this feedback :)

...

I checked also in IE and once more in Chrome. It was ok for me because the currently set delay is "optimized" for my typing speed. In case I type a little bit slower intentionally the problem with missing characters occur again.

It seems the issue is that the input field is disabled (or lose the focus) during a request is sent to server (from sending to displaying the results). In IE the issue occur more often as the request (and displaying) takes more time in IE (maybe because of the slower Javascript engine).

So as a summery: this issue is not really fixable by changing the delay, because it depends on the user's speed of typing. Please check, if we can get rid of the disabling / focus loosing instead. Thanks.

In worst case, we have to increase the delay even more to minimize the occurrence of the issue.

@maxschuster do you have any idea here?

kind regards
Andreas
