Bug: Language switch button🌐 not working properly. #637

Momentarily pressing the language switch button after typing does not switch the language. Instead, it capitalizes the keyboard letters.

I just tried to reproduce this and it seems you're correct that it doesn't switch the language. But on my phone it adds a space instead of capitalizing the keyboard letters. I also think this might me a good behavior since it prevents accidentally switching the keyboard when just trying to hit space.

Would it be possible for an option turning that button, disabled by default, into a toggle that activates the last used keyboard? I use KeePassDX for putting in passwords, and its custom keyboard Magikeyboard has a button that switches to OpenBoard (or whatever keyboard is installed, probably the most recent?) and a feature like this going the other direction would streamline things quite a bit. Since Magikeyboard doesn't have keyboard functionality, only a small set of KeePass-specific functions.
