title: Show software keyboard without EditText
body: <p>My goal is to show/hide on-screen software keyboard on some event and intercept input from that keyboard.</p>
  
  <p>I found out that soft keyboard can be shown for some <code>View</code> class descendants, but I don't need any visual representation of the text edit widget on screen, just the ability to programmatically show/hide soft keyboard with input interception.</p>
  
  <p>What is the best way to achieve this?</p>
