log10(3)/log10(2) misbehaves from virtual keyboard

Trying to enter log10(3)/log10(2) using the virtual keyboard to enter the functions will not work properly unless you enclose (log10(3)) in parenthesis. It is when I press the division sign that the parser misinterprets what is going on (and yes, i have right-stepped out of the argument parenthesis first).

This works fine when entered using a real keyboard but this confuses students. The same behaviour goes for logx(3) etc but correct behaviour is displayed by ln(3)/ln(2) so I'm guessing ints the numeric indeces that screws up the inputs somehow. Any chance of sorting this out?
