--- Comment #10 from Nicolas Fella <nicolas.fe...@gmx.de> ---
In 5.20 we replaced the builtin hardcoded QtVirtualKeyboard with an
implementation of the input method wayland protocol
(https://github.com/wayland-project/wayland-protocols/blob/master/unstable/input-method/input-method-unstable-v1.xml).
In principal that allows any compliant keyboard to work. For Plasma Mobile we
use Maliit (http://maliit.github.io/). "there aren't any external virtual
keyboards that work with Wayland" is therefore not true.

However, the keyboard to be used needs to be specified when starting KWin,
which we do for Mobile, but not on the desktop. Therefore it does not work on
the desktop currently.

A simple solution would be to hardcode maliit like we do on mobile and require
distros to ship it, but a more flexible approach would be nicer.
