    Description

      When using the virtual keyboard in a widget-based UI using desktop integration mode, then input into a field that is part of an application-modal dialog is not possible. The keyboard appears as expected, but the user can't interact with it.

      The workaround is to make modal dialogs window-modal, using QWidget::setWindowModality.
