That dev is me (hence my profile pic)

Yep, that's what I'll try to do tomorrow.

My problems are:
- the soft keyboard really likes to disappear in GTK apps That's a system bug, not from me...
- Need to check if I can override the taps as in Gargoyle; otherwise...
- I need to add a command to reload it every time some dialog opens
- Don't really know how to add a keyboard with modifier keys (ctrl and alt)


...Anyway, I would like to have a maximum screen surface when editing text. And a good typing experience. So, for serious writing I would prefer an external keyboard.
