VT switching it totally irrelevant for input. It happens that X has currently only one routine that switches VT and modifies the VT mode so that only X server gets input. The two things are separate, however. It is a bug that VT mode is not modified when dummy driver is used with the standard evdev driver. It is not a bug that the VT is not switched, however. And I don't see that happening by default with the dummy driver.
