When using Surface Go without physical keyboard attached, tapping on the Firefox address bar or text fields in web pages should trigger on-screen keyboard to appear. Works in other browsers on the same device, but not Firefox 77.

Annoying workaround is: long-press to force context menu to appear, screen keyboard also appears, cancel context menu, start typing.
