Testing our application on a tablet, it appears that opening the keyboard by clicking a text field causes the footer to be pushed upwards. This makes sense, as it is a docked component, but I was wondering if there is some way to hide the footer when a keyboard is opened or the window height passes a threshold (the breakpoint only applying to width, as far as I know).

Android tablet, using Chrome.

I can reproduce this bug on a PC as well. The downloaded files popup pushes the footer up.  
Windows 10, Chrome.

That’s pretty much how footers (Docked Views on the bottom) work across the internet. I’m not saying we can’t change how we do it, I’m just pointing out that we’re not doing anything that isn’t pretty standard across the web.
