For use cases such as developing a web browser, and focusing contents
in a parallel animation together with the virtual keyboard appearing,
we will need to be able to get the target area when the keyboards
starts its opening animation. This is not currently possible with
MeeGo and makes it quite impossible to get the right behaviour without
hardcoding things.
Also the keyboard might change size during orientation change and
animate that. In that case we will also need the new targetArea the
keyboard will occupy.
