I’ve tried Tiled from v0.8-45-gf4391be and the problem is still there
(unable to enter text.)  The message might be slightly different:

$ /gnu/store/q8i8mixx5xx1g06bb7jzzywm189768pc-tiled-0.10.2/bin/tiled

Qt: Failed to create XKB context!
Use QT_XKB_CONFIG_ROOT environmental variable to provide an additional search 
path, add ':' as separator to provide several search paths and/or make sure 
that XKB configuration data directory contains recent enough contents, to 
update please see http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xkeyboard-config/ .
