It looks like the virtual keyboard will automatically show

Is this assumption correct (virtual keyboard is available
automatically for any text input fields)?
Yes, it is correct. But I keep thinking that this concept really only
works out for small form factors (such as handset UX). For tablet UX and
bigger (say, on the desktop), the Qt default of "first touch to focus,
and second touch to bring up VKB" feels better.
But then again, I am no user interaction designer ...
actually the vkb is only activated when an input gains focus. If you
write your app such that a given element automatically has focus then
you will see the vkb open as soon as you open the app, but if you don't
then the user has to touch the input area.
