This is a feature request :

  • need full smaller keyboards on both left & right sides of the display with swipe typing(single finger typing where words automatically recognized and typed according to finger movement and with suggestions just above like android gboard ) with the thumb should be great for typing fast.Also an ability to place as many small keyboards on the screen as you want(like the the tablet mode small keyboards)

  • And also To be able configure the layout of the on screen keyboard . Like create custom keys and remove unwanted keys in tablet mode keyboard and also the basic on screen keyboard.
    For example - for people who use a lot of shortcuts in some particualr apps and do have a touch screen display then while using as a tablet can convert combination of keys to a single key (with custom name ) .And use those custom keys in a custom layout to ease there on screen typing.

  • to be able to add different keyboard layouts on github or share opensource with everyone.

  • To be able to set the opacity of the tablet mode keyboard and normal on screen keyboard(Dont know if its currently possible) .

And also to be able to have the tablet mode keyboard available in normal mode(Dont know if this is possible today).

Thanks
P.S. Dont know if any of the above is possible today somehow. If it is please tell how.

As discussed in #121. 

Adds a new `IListItem.TextToSuggest` property. If an extension populates that, and the user hits right-arrow when the item is selected, we'll set the `SearchText` to that text. 

I didn't give it a UI treatment, because 
1. I'm not good at XAML
2. As noted in zadjii-msft#121 (comment), there's complicated edge cases here. You have to track what's actually been typed, and then also have a ghost suggestion for the very first item (before the user types/up/downs at all). 

I didn't think it was valuable to implement that right now before we have A Real App. 

* targets #144 
  * which targets #142 
    * which targets #141 

and those guys are all merged as of #150
