Hi, Ross
As far as I known, Nokia has done something in GTK and change it name as
Maemo_GTK. In that version of GTK, a new input method is supported. Base on
that GTK, keyboard can be auto-launched easily.
Now we need to use the GTK 2.11 in the main stream. Can I have the
feature of auto-launch without doing anything either on gtk or on libhildon?
Or you mean that I can wait for a moment. Then the new version of GTK on
gnome.org will have the code of Maemo_GTK. In that time, I can do nothing but
have this feature.
I am not clear how I can get this feature. Please tell something more
detail! Thank you very much!
Best wishes,
Han Jian

I should say that this approach means that the keyboard automatically
appears/disappears for *every* widget *automatically*, thanks to using
the support GTK+ already has for input methods. It is also the same
model as the Maemo approach, which at present is closed source (although
it is being opened at the moment).
