Description
What type of issue is this?
Browser bug (a bug with a feature that may impact site compatibility)
What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?
Nothing, it's a browser bug, having imputmode=none wouldn't show the keyboard, but using the barcode reader of an attached keyboard would make the keyboard popup.
What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?
Chromium (Chrome, Edge 79+, Opera, Samsung Internet)
What did you expect to see?
imputmode=none won't make software keyboard show
Did you test this? If so, how?
Yes, on our devices, we have a WMS and we relied on this feature to hide the soft keyboard and use the device's or attached barcode scanner.
