Resolution Note (fix version 2021.1):
This is actually "By Design".
Originally with HoloLens, the Windows APIs (CoreTextEditContext) used to interface with the soft Keyboard wasn't supported, and so internal XAML forms were used as a proxy for entering text. Now, HoloLens properly supports these APIs and the UWP TouchScreenKeyboard was completely re-written to fully integrate the Keyboard with the Unity UI controls (InputField and TextMeshPro).
However, the "old" implementation is still around and used for XAML projects Going forward we'll remove the old keyboard code, and we "might* be able to backport the change to 2019 LTS, so long as it doesn't break anything.
