Use your right shift key?
Use your caps lock key?

Never tried this before but it might work, there is a little icon (looks like a timer) down the bottom left when you login, click it, it gives you options of how you want to login, one of them being on screen keyboard
Might work :)

Edit: Just tried it, it works

with on screen keyboard
Without Shift
