Unity web player game using Google Chrome will not allow input
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the build (build/build.html) with Chrome or build the project to webplayer platform
2. Press 'Run this time' when Chrome asks permission for using Unity web player
3. Click on the game with left mouse button
4. Try to move with WASD - no movement input gets registered. Minimize-maximize Chrome. It now gets input.
5. Repeat step 2 and don't click on the game window. Game receives input.

How can we seriously try and produce web based games with an issue like this still current?
Please fix!

Another way to fix it is to open a separate browser tab and then go back to the original browser tab and click on the web player. You should be able to use all controls. Its an annoying issue.

A quick Google search shows that this issue has been around since 2007. It's kind of nuts that a critical bug like this has been around for so long. Especially since it makes web player useless on the Mac + Chrome platform.
Telling our users to go full-screen or switch browsers is not an acceptable solution, please prioritize this bug!

I can confirm this behaviour in Chrome on Mac. Very serious bug.
If you choose "always run" it will work. Also, if you go to full screen it works.

this is a serious issue and needs to get looked at ASAP!!! It basically means chrome cannot be used for unity gaming in any serious way
