PowerGUI, I had a quick look at the test source. I haven't been able to actually run the test, but this seems like great work. I can see a lot of applications that would enjoy using this. In order to facilitate use, it would be good to create an intents-based method of starting your keyboard.
You might use an android.content.Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT with a new mime type. This is a little less than ideal because this Intent should return a URI to the content picked, whereas you would probably just like to return the characters. It should be pretty easy to create a content provider with one-time URI's. That is, store the characters chosen from the soft keyboard at the given URI and after their first retrieval, delete the content. Another option would be to create your keyboard as a View. This way, any application could just incorporate it into their project. I'm excited to see these innovative applications coming out so quickly.
