When pressing and holding a zoom widget comes up and you can select a
character and write words not in the dictionary. I would label this "non-
predictive mode" for thumb keyboards.

Comment(by iknowjoseph):
This is true, and I have successfully used this mode to enter data.
However, the extra time it takes to enter characters in this non-
predictive mode penalises the user for not using the OM default. I can,
for example, put my SonyEricsson keyboard into non-predictive mode, and
enter characters without holding the key down for longer than I need to
when in predictive mode.
"Holding down" a displayed key on a touch screen is also very unintuitive.
IMHO this defect is still valid.

Screenshot of the virtual on screen keyboard would be welcome. I wonder
how they make the keys big enough that one can easily hit them with the
average finger size in western cultures.

Comment:
As it is possible to enter words (even if it needs knowledge how to do
that and is not easily discoverable) that are not in the dictionary I
think the initial issue does not exist.
Further existing keyboard issues:
#1764 - Request to be able to switch keyboards (e.g. full stylus
qwertz)
#1752 - special mode for entering passwords
#1795 - for missing and wanted keys
As I do not see that this bug adds anything not already covered I close it
as duplicate.

Please display password characters when entering them into the Openmoko.
Password security can be provided by moving the phone so others can't see
it; this is much easier than using a small keyboard to enter your
passphrase when you can't see if you've made any mistakes.

Non of those bugs ask for what I have requested: The OM2008.8 keyboard, as
it is at the moment, but with the added option of selecting a non-
predictive mode that doesn't overly inconvenience the user. Yes, there are
currently ways of using the keyboard in a non-predictive way, but it could
be improved; it doesn't matter whether you prefer to call it an
enhancement or a defect, it's certainly not a duplicate.
