            Bug ID: 440569
           Summary: virtual keyboard become active whenever an input field
                    is activated for any reason even when a keyboard is
                    attached
           Product: kwin
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: virtual-keyboard
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Fedora 34 with maliit-keyboard in a built-from-source Plasma Wayland session.

Right now whenever an input field gets focus for any reason, the virtual
keyboard appears. This happens for all apps--KDE, GNOME, Electron, and so on.
This behavior is annoying and inappropriate for cases when there is actually a
physical keyboard attached.

If there is a physical keyboard attached, the virtual keyboard should only
appear if an input field is explicitly tapped with a touchscreen. Only when no
physical keyboard is attached does it make sense to activate the virtual
keyboard for all input field activations.
