I'm not actually convinced of this either. If I bring up the virtual keyboard
by touching a window on my touchscreen, and then I move that window to a
non-touch screen, that might defeat the purpose of using the virtual keyboard.

I'm thinking ideally KWin should keep touch-activated virtual keyboards on
touch-capable screens. Perhaps even just leave it on the original screen, where
we know that my fingers have access to the touch surface.

Maybe it's a different story for pointing devices with relative movement (i.e.
mouse/touchpad) which don't need direct touchscreen contact to use the virtual
keyboard. In that case, I could see a moving virtual keyboard to be more
useful, because it keeps the virtual keyboard close to the window, reducing
movement for eyes and mouse pointer.
