@omrilio what do you think? I'm not sure the keyboard should stay active when something like a toggle is focused -- if you're going to be interacting with controls on the screen, you shouldn't need the virtual keyboard to do it (though maybe there's some a11y case I'm not thinking of?).

Isn't it the same behavior as when the space key in physical keyboard is pressed instead of a11y keyboard?

I think it's WAI. a11y keyboard should have the same behavior as the physical keyboard.
I am in favor of allowing the user to open the a11y keyboard if they really want to. Note that this is a user action, so absolutely agree that this is WAI.
