 Replying to [comment:6 zecke]:
 > As it is possible to enter words (even if it needs knowledge how to do
 that and is not easily discoverable) that are not in the dictionary I
 think the initial issue does not exist.

 > Further existing keyboard issues:
 >      #1764 - Request to be able to switch keyboards (e.g. full stylus
 qwertz)

 it as duplicate.

 Non of those bugs ask for what I have requested: The OM2008.8 keyboard, as
 it is at the moment, but with the added option of selecting a non-
 predictive mode that doesn't overly inconvenience the user. Yes, there are
 currently ways of using the keyboard in a non-predictive way, but it could
 be improved; it doesn't matter whether you prefer to call it an
 enhancement or a defect, it's certainly not a duplicate.
