I've seen this too, and been annoyed by it. My theory is different - X
is catching the /release/ event of the F3 key. If I release F3 quicky,
it doesn't switch to the Home view. This is easier to test with an
external usb keyboard - the time it takes to release the key on the XO
keyboard is longer.

I suspect cursor issues are a completely different thing.
