AIUI, the need is for English keyboard in normal mode, and Russian in
insert mode. Perhaps that could be handled by switching at Start_Insert
(:h t_SI) and End_Insert (:h t_EI), as is done here, fiddling the cursor
appearance on those events:
" Cursor Appearance: (Insert_Mode == Green, Normal_Mode == Red)
if &term =~ "xterm"
let &t_SI = "\<Esc>]12;green\x7"
let &t_EI = "\<Esc>]12;red\x7"
endif
But is the "Switch to Russian layout" action a terminal function, as I'm
guessing, allowing such a method to be used?
