Are you saying there is no way the virtual keyboard can be hidden?

Because I am trying the "bare-bone" version and when you copy a text (which is something quite common and something that can be done solely via ctrl+c & ctrl+v on the keyboard), an additional row appears. With this additional row, my rough estimate is that the keyboard takes ~28% of the screen when in landscape. I don't think that is really tolerable if you want a good HW keyboard experience.

EDIT: I know this is probably up to Jolla to resolve, but I'm just saying that the "bare-bone" virtual keyboard solution is far from ideal.
