Hello there
After some days and one give up I am proud to announce a new Moksha feature related to xkbswitch module. Let me introduce the idea. In some cases users with different keyboard layouts (for example cyrilic or arabic etc.) need to switch their layout to English manually for using commands in terminology or other situations. It could be annoying to realize in what app user is and what layout is in use. A better way is to set layout for each application and automatic switch in window focus. I did some research and I can say all known WMs can offer this feature so why not to have it in Moksha as well. Once the layout is set for an application, it is remembered and it will be back after app restart. The coding process did not go very well but I have a working solution in testing phase. This feature will be disabled by default and possible to turn on in keyboard module settings. For better understanding watch the video
