First of all, I am sorry that I misjudged where my problem belonged to.
Secondly, I am very thankful for your reply and happy to confirm that following 
steps in ubuntu phone shell allowed for a gtk application running within xmir 
did enable OSK in this app:

 $ sudo mount -o remount,rw /
 $ sudo apt-get install maliit-inputcontext-gtk3 maliit-inputcontext-gtk2
 $ sudo mount -o remount,ro /
