lazy Tkinter question - [focus / virtual keyboard]

Is it possible in Tkinter to simulate a keystroke into the current
active (focused widget) by pressing another button (this is for a
virtual keyboard on a touchscreen pc).

the troubles i see is:
on pressing the button focus changes to it
if you set focus back, some inputfields will act specially (eg. on
focus out/focus in, keypress)
i know i have to use the "event" function in tkinter to send the
keystroke - but i still have the above troubles?

Input would be extremely appreciated...
