@Andre Klapper: I know only of https://sourceforge.net/projects/jsvk/.

I also consider the idea to add a virtual keyboard (with multiple layouts) to
be very good and quite frankly, it's for the better, especially if that virtual
keyboard can be used everywhere on Wikipedia, not just on the
password-typing/login pages. I consulted the guys over at the #mediawiki IRC
channel and they confirmed that there is currently no Wikipedia
extension/plug-in that provides virtual keyboard(s) functionalities.

On the OS and software level, people use the following virtual keyboards which
provide multiple language/locale IMEs/keyboard layouts: Windows XP/Win7: START
-> Programs -> Accessibility -> Virtual Keyboard. On GNU/Linux, people use
Onboard (https://launchpad.net/onboard — default on Ubuntu — the best in my
humble opinion, supports multiple languages), Florence
(http://florence.sourceforge.net/english.html), GOK (http://gok.ca/), XVKBD
(http://homepage3.nifty.com/tsato/xvkbd/) or even the virtual keyboard of the
grid-entry natural handwriting input panel program CellWriter
(http://risujin.org/cellwriter/).

Many websites (especially e-dictionaries) provide built-in JavaScript-powered
virtual keyboards for easy text typing.
