Add keyboardInput class to password input field for compatibility with virtual keyboard.

[boum]

We have a vkeyboard plugin almost ready to be released. It uses
greywyvern's javascript virtual keyboard (​http://www.greywyvern.com/code/javascript/keyboard).

The single issue that prevents us from releasing it yet is: we currently need to patch upstream virtual keyboard javascript code to have it detect the password input field. The upstream javascript uses the "keyboardInput" class to detect it.

Please add this class to the password input field on the login screen, so that it can be detected without patching the javascript.

The attached patch implements this.

Why not adding this class by javascript (jquery) by the plugin?

...or in the template_object_loginform plugin hook. There you get the entire HTML code for the login form and you an easily add a class using string replacement functions.

Replying to thomasb:

...or in the template_object_loginform plugin hook. There you get the entire HTML code for the login form and you an easily add a class using string replacement functions.

Actually, this is what we did, we patched the vkeyboard javascript so that it attaches itself to the right form, but we'd prefer this to be implemented upstream in roundcube. That would ease the maintenance and upgrades, and we thought it might be a good killer feature for roundcube, hence the patch. Other ways, by template_object_loginform or by jquery sounds a bit hackish.

Just create a plugin.
