I suppose you have something like this in mind for the globe,

I have three layouts as well. What I find nice, is that by default it
switches among
the two most recent layouts. If I need the third layout, I select it and
then it switches
between the previously most recent and the newly selected layout.
I did not manage to find an existing bug report at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-keyboard for this.

I get that as well. It happens when you are about to choose a contact from
the Contacts list
(either Phone or Messaging, probably wherever a contact is needed).
That should be in https://bugs.launchpad.net/address-book-app
I think the relevant bug report is
https://bugs.launchpad.net/address-book-app/+bug/1421245
and it can be adapted to mention "non-Latin" filters.
Here are two relevant reports,
"Contact search doesn't match accented names"
https://bugs.launchpad.net/address-book-app/+bug/1367906
"Bad sorting when characters are accented"
https://bugs.launchpad.net/address-book-app/+bug/1440065
Perhaps use "QString::localeAwareCompare" in both cases?
