[Bug 993253] Re: Turning off on-screen keyboard leaves it on the locked screen

[marmuta]

The current default behavior is to always embed Onboard into the screen-
saver, but it will only actually show if either the keyboard is enabled
in system settings (org.gnome.desktop.a11y.applications.screen-keyboard-
enabled == true), or Onboard is currently running in the user session.
If you don't already use Onboard, it shouldn't actually show up in the
screen-saver either.

Barring bugs, the only unsupported case would be, if you did start
Onboard from a launcher, kept using it, but still didn't want to see it
in the screen-saver. The only recurse to that is to turn off screen-
saver embedding in Onboard's preferences (org.onboard.xembed-onboard =
false).

Having control center turn off org.gnome.desktop.screensaver.embedded-
keyboard-enabled wouldn't help all that much, because Onboard on startup
keeps restoring those keys to something that allows it to show, until it
is told not to do so. The dialog you saw is Onboard trying to restore
them, but realizing the screen-saver keys have been changed by a third
party and leaving the decision to the user.

So my question is, is there a common use case, where you do want to use
Onboard, but not have it show up in the lock screen?
