I'd be adding features for the paid version, not removing any (unless
programatically impossible to mix them).

I'm finding the users pretty fickle actually, at least 10% actually
download the thing not knowing what it does and give it a one star
when they don't read the installation instructions (it's an input
method).

Anyway, I had intended it to be free, but people are asking for
features that will cost me to implement (more than it already does in
time), so I'll do the work, but they can help defer the cost.

Because it's an input method, it's pretty hard to add special buttons!

Most of what I want to add can be done as a separate content provider,
so I'm thinking that's the way to go.

I think Google really has to fix the market though!
