To implement this we'd need to devise some mechanism to provide language
hints to the keyboard. If we wanted to do this purely internally this
could be achieved by exposing some hint via the keyboard's QML bindings
which the SDK's text field/area could use to inform the keyboard of the
change in language when focused. Alternatively we could suggest this
upstream as a property on the Qt TextInput type and provide the
information via the QtInputContextPlugin interface like is already done
for the inputMethodHints property.
I'd guess that's a decision that really needs to be arrived at by the
SDK team, but we should be able to support either approach from the
keyboard side. The first option would likely be less work, but this
seems like the sort of thing that should perhaps be standardised across
Qt apps if upstream are interested in this functionality.
