Description
Show/hide widget seems to function, tapping on the console area also cycles the keyboard, although the input area is not scrolled into view, remaining hidden under the touch keyboard.

After losing focus due to opening another app (this time by clicking on a notification from that app), and returning straight back to iSH, we have no more esc/ctl/cursor/paste/system button touchbar

Only a floating hide/paste widget. Sometimes after switching away for a long time and returning, the keyboard resets itself, but recently using locate iSH has been able to keep itself from resetting webview for much longer periods than in the past, for days longer than the 15 minute timeout of standard google apps which use GPS for tracking to update maps.

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests and provides only screenshots of the behavior. Start by reproducing the missing touchbar controls after switching away from and back to iSH, then trace the iOS keyboard behavior; done means the esc, ctl, cursor, paste, and system controls return and the input area is visible.
