If you're drawing a direct comparison to the Fedora boot process from the 
Windows process, the point at which Windows is presenting an OSK is about at 
the point after which initrd is loaded in the Fedora boot process. It's not 
happening at the bootloader itself.

Further, there is no threading support in GRUB to begin with, nor a GUI 
toolkit which could be used for an OSK.


The image shows the Surface OSK which is autoshown by the Surface Bios.
Grub does not need to draw the osk itself. It works already,



all it needs is a way to have the password asked there and send to plymouth decryptroutine.



Best regards,
