Android native field focus problem

[J. Landman Gay]

It works here, in fact I had to go out of my way to make it not happen 
because we didn't want the keyboard popping up. But you do have to have a 
LC field in place.

If the field is the first editable field then LC selects it as usual on 
opencard, which triggers the Android keyboard to appear. You can make the 
LC field transparent and empty if you aren't going to use it. You can set 
the selectedRange in the native field if you want to. Actually, setting the 
range might be enough by itself.

I generally keep LC fields for use in the IDE and create native fields over 
them in mobile, emptying or hiding them if necessary. That way you already 
have a rect to use, and testing in the IDE is more convenient.
