[Annoying glitch] I got backspace key stuck indefinitely in the Steam onscreen keyboard

[blamedrop 🐧]

While writing review for a game on the Deck, I've used the backspace (by pressing `X`) a few times. And one time it apparently got stuck as 'key down' indefinitely! I saw all the text I wrote being deleted

It wasn't that the button got physically stuck, it's fine.

But even after navigating away from the store page I still can't write anything using that keyboard, not even in the search bar for library etc. Also the keyboard seems to be wonky because it feels like lagging a bit after this incident

Keyboard seems to be behaving fine otherwise (UI wise - `Enter` does it's thing), but no text is entered - as I think it's 'backspaced' right away. It's still persistent after changing keyboard theme to a different one. Putting Deck to sleep is not resolving it either. Of course, hiding/showing the keyboard with `STEAM`+`X` shortcut is not helping too. Giving the Deck a restart helped.

Okay, I've reproduced it.

I broke it again by pressing `X` and `STEAM`+`X` few times in a quick succession...

Now I can clearly see that it's really 'backspace' being stuck and keyboard being laggy after it happens. I can quickly press, for example 't' few times, see 'ttttt' appear in text area, and moment later being deleted.

It's pretty annoying since I don't know how to fix it without restarting the Deck

Aaand reproduced it again by simply pressing `X`, `STEAM`+`X` twice in rapid succession.

Software keyboard needs an overhaul. It's incredibly buggy and unreliable.

You have to close the steam app at the tool bar and then open it back up
