This simply can't work. xtrlock grabs all mouse and keyboard input events, so a virtual keyboard will not receive mouse clicks anymore and will not generate keyboard input.

Sir! I understand this, but like on a login page, there is only a possibility of login and we can still use the provided virtual keyboard.
Thankyou

i don't quite see the need to track an upstream feature request on our side. if you think this should be solved somehow, please approach upstream.
