@mlaverdiere: Thank you for pointing me to that patch. Most of the time it is 
working instantly, if it does not you just have to wait till it stops blinking 
and then press it again - not a big deal compared to swiveling the screen 
around to get to the physical keyboard when in tablet mode... 
SImilar instructions are here:

@Mark Shuttleworth: I am just a copy-paste ex-windows-user, I had no idea that 
this function seems to be so difficult to implement. If it will be there in 
11.10 I can live with the above patch (and still hope for a plugin...). 
Using Tablet PCs since 2005 and switching from Windows exactly one year ago I 
just wanna point out that Ubuntu with Unity is really great for Tablet PCs 
already. All I am missing is that button and a native virtual keyboard 
integration. 11.04 is great stuff!
