Because I assume it will have to switch from whatever you're doing to 
S*Basic, load the keyboard_table, do the appropriate tra and then return 
back... how are you going to return back to the application if you don't 
know who called it?

The only (reasonable) way I see it possible to be done with a thing, but I 
am the wrong person to do it :-)

The other way is to trap all keystrokes... (Not very effective).

The problem with a language like mine that you get a lot of mixed English 
with Greek which makes fast switching imperative. The hotkey method is not 
really effective and deters you from actually being able to type. You may 
not see it the point because of the latin characters that you are using but 
I am and it's not funny.
I wish I had the greek rom right now. This was modified to accept the 
standard (at the time) combination CTRL-ALT-F1 (English), CTRL-ALT-F2 
(Greek). All messages were in Greek and the keyboard was totally switchable...

P.S. I remind you that I don't have an SMSQ/E manual so whatever I know 
about hotkeys etc... have been learned through practice and trial and 
error... That's why my assumptions might (which I hope they are) wrong.
