Now, I'm working for this, a REAL virtual keyboard, it's a overlay above all another window, write with QML.
It send fake XKeyEvent to focused window, so, it can use another input method, like ibus :]

Quick reply...
I like that you make the keyboard QML based, with large keys, with arrows, quite transparent and not opaque, and the layout is all written down in QML.

As I understand, there are three free unassigned keys in the keyboard. It could allow for switching between four keyboards, at least. You could make the C++ part of the code able to switch between four different QMLs, make the three keys send corresponding signals to the C++ part of the code, create four nearly identical English layouts, and then let users customise keys and keycodes of the keyboard layouts to their hearts' content.
Like:
one layout English,
one layout special symbols,
one layout Greek for mathematical formulas,
one layout Esperanto.

What do you think about it?

Hi foolegg,
this work looks interesting, but I am unable to watch the video using my N900, and I don't have any other PC.

Are you still planning to package it so that it can be available in the Maemo repos?
