One thing to keep in mind is that the Maliit keyboard layouts _are_ the language files, so if we make even to most trivial of changes for our desired keyboard layout (move a button or add a button etc) then any new language layouts we may later add will be of minimal use to Maliit upstream, unfortunately. Would be nice if the process could go both ways, but unlikely in the short term at least.
