Here's an additional answer, in case anyone winds up chasing this issue like I did.

Provided you're using jQuery, the following snippet should prevent the "Go" button from triggering a form submission (at least it does on Nexus 7's Chrome on Android 4.2.2; YMMMV). Also, note that if you want to allow the "Enter" key to work on any of the input types below, this will prevent that from happening.

$(document.body).on('keydown', 'input:text, input[type=password], input[type=email]',     
    function (e) { 
        // Android maps the "Go" button to the Enter key => key code 13
        if (e.keyCode == 13) {
            return false; 
        }
    });

Edit: It seems this bug breaks keyup/keydown in Chrome in Android > 4.3, in which case this fix will no longer work in some circumstances.
