Request: Keep the model loaded for faster switching with main IME #30

I open sayboard from another keyboard by clicking the voice button - so already with intent to start recording. Would be great to have the option to auto-start recording opn open (as soon as it's ready)

Another optimization would be to keep the model loaded for a few minutes, so switching back and forth doesn't always have a ~1s delay "preparing recognizer", but that might be more effort I guess.

The first suggestion I've already implemented (see #12 ) I just hadn't created a release since.

I'll have to check if the second is possible.
