  1. QML version: (4.7.4)
    Auto-uppercase works after app startup, but stops working.
  2. Also with Widget version (1.1.13) problems with qt 4.7.4.
    (Behavor however different, cannot always be reproduced).
    An option is to don't fix in 1.x, as Symbian^3 can switch to 2.x if available, while
    older devices are probabably not affected by the issue

Effect:
Virtual keyboard stays alway s in Abc mode. This means that always uppercase characters are entered,
after manually switching to lower case, after entering one character automatically switched to uppercase again.
This error state is only left if application is restarted.

Problem appearantly occurs if:

  1. Articlelist clicked while virtual qwerty keyboard open
    Not directly related to closing of virtual keyboard (which happens on click), because
    disabling article page prevents closing, but problem still occurs. However in other
    test app (textfield+ list), which does not gain focus, problem does not occur, only affected by 2.
  2. App switched to background while virtual (qwerty?) keyboard open

Workaround in commit 8212afa. for QML version
Force inputMethodHints to Qt.ImhNoAutoUppercase while length of input >0.
Behavior is pretty. Difference to standard behavior is that now after manual switching to upper case on later
chars, it stays in uppercase mode, while standard behavior is that it switches to lower case after one character.
Would make sense to emulate this behavior.

On Nokia N8 Belle with WikiOnBoard 1.1.14 no issue with autouppercase observed.
(Only an Anna+Qt 4.7.4 issue?)
