Maliit Keyboard and Plasma

It's unclear to me if Plasma expects or needs Maliit to be installed.

It's discussed here that "The built-in keyboard was dropped in 5.20 in
favor of external virtual keyboards."
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427972

And of course users on tablet style machines

So should we have maliit installed by default?  Should this be added as a
cmake runtime check somewhere?  Should distros be told?  It doesn't seem to
be a lot of distros looking at repology
