            Bug ID: 439911
           Summary: Popup virtual keyboard as a new action
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm_kwintouchscreen
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: herzensch...@gmail.com

  Target Milestone: ---

GNOME's virtual keyboard allows to show the virtual keyboard by swiping from
the bottom edge upwards while keeping focus in the current window, and swiping
from the top of the virtual keyboard downwards hides the keyboard.

The first works around misbehaving apps who do not cooperate with virtual
keyboards and never show them even if running natively on wayland (like
Chrome/ium).

With Maliit only the second action is possible.

My first instinct is that this could be implemented as another action in the
Touchscreen KCM. This also seems like consistent behavior in case the user
wants to hide the keyboard to see the whole screen before getting back to
writing, but perhaps this is best implemented in maliit itself.
