But one that can be easily solved, thus I'd like to make a feature request. Especially in the landscape mode, the onscreen keyboard takes up a large portion of the screen. Potentially it can overlap the window where the text is being typed into, so you cannot see what you're typing. This could be VERY easily solved by letting users to set transparency level for the entire onscreen keyboard. Attached is my concept of maliit keyboard at 70% opacity on Ubuntu Touch phone, in landscape windowed mode.
