Inconvenience switching between Javanese jv-Latn and Javanese jv-Java

split the input methods into two "languages"

After using it quite a while and rather intensively recently (among others, in Javanese Wikisource), I find this change highly inconvenience, mildly annoying, and unnatural to switch between different input method I have to perform multiple clicks on a very small hovering window that always disappear.

While I understand the intent, I highly doubt the current solution ideal. Here's some suggestion:

A. Combine them again. Then I can switch between Latin (let's call it X) )and Javanese script (let's call it Y) again with Ctrl+M

B. what if I make the keyboard dual script, X and Y in one input method?

C. Shortcut key to switch between X and Y across different "language" with Ctrl+something (where I could define a list of "favourite input methods" and assign Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2, etc. for each of them)

D. Shortcut key to switch the language between jv and jv-Java with Ctrl+somethingelse, and then Ctrl+M (not ideal, every switch still need to at least several clicks away)

E. And please, why I can't find jv-Java by typing "Jawa" in the language list? (I had to type java). It's not natural for our speakers and users to find jv keyboards by typing "Jawa", then ask them to find jv-Java keyboards by typing "Java".

@bennylin Thanks for filing this issue here!

A couple of the issues you mentioned in this request are specific to Javanese. I’ve created Phabricator tasks for them:

Hopefully, we’ll get to them soon. Thanks!
