It seems the keyboard in iOS 15 has gained some height and that is causing a 
problem.

Scenario. My UI is primarily a datagrid. Fill it with 8 items and the next one 
added will cause the keyboard to cover the row. The previous solution has been 
to redraw the datagid so it occupies the space above the keyboard (and then 
scroll the new line into view). This worked fine as long as the KB always 
occupied a fixed amount of space (height). The new one in iOS 15 appears to be 
approximately 1 row of keys taller, this row being filled with blank slots for 
word guesses while you type (an option I would not even know how to make use 
of). 

Solutions: one option is to simply redraw the datagrid to be above the new 
keyboard height. Problem is I have been hard coding this (ie. changing the 
bottom of the keyboard from 452 (activated) to 613 (deactivated) as required). 
This is less than ideal because as I have now witnessed in iOS 15.x the 
keyboard can expand to have 1 or 2 extra rows above the keys. ie. the 
size/height of the keyboard is now dynamic. Ideally I would be able to query 
the height of the keyboard, or the amount of available screen space, so that I 
could adjust the bottom of my datagrid appropriately.

Has anyone else been looking into this issue and how have you resolved it?

Thanks
Mark
