I noticed this same issue on a friend's phone that was running Android 4, so 
this seems to be a problem with Android 4 generally. (Cyanogen 9 is is based on 
Android 4.0.)

Unfortunately I don't have ready access to an Android 4 device for an extended 
period of time to debug this (I use an LG Optimus One running 2.3.3), and I 
can't get swipes to work correctly in the emulator for any version of the OS, 
so I haven't been able to fix this issue yet.

Marked "Priority-Critical" because the Cheat Sheet is critical for anyone who 
hasn't memorized Morse code (which is pretty much everyone!)

I managed to get ICS installed on my LG P500, replicated this issue, and fixed 
it. Previously I was detecting a "swipe up off the keyboard" by looking for a 
MotionEvent with the y < 0. ICS apparently stopped sending MotionEvents once y 
hit 0, so it never got to this point. So, I changed it to y <= 10 instead, and 
that works. Although I suppose there's still the possibility that it may not 
work if a person swipes up very quickly, has a screen with a large resolution, 
and/or their system is running slowly, all of which I'm guessing could cause it 
to skip intermediate MotionEvents. I'll do some testing on a tablet to be sure, 
but for now I'm calling this fixed.
