Public bug reported:
OK, this is not a real bug, rather a characteristic. But one that can be easily
solved, thus I'd like to make a feature request.
Especially in the landscape mode, the onscreen keyboard takes up a large
portion of the screen. Potentially it can overlap the window where the text is
being typed into, so you cannot see what you're typing.
This could be VERY easily solved by letting users to set transparency level for
the entire onscreen keyboard. Attached is my concept of maliit keyboard at 70%
opacity on Ubuntu Touch phone, in landscape windowed mode.

see what you're typing"
