Hello, There is a long-standing request that gnome-shell OSK should respect system's keyboard layout[1]. Though actually it works already, we are still missing the majority of layout files (see /usr/share/caribou/layouts/touch/*.xml; there are only 3). I'd like to call for more layout files submitted, hopefully in the 3.16 cycle.
I understand that writing a layout file from scratch is an uphill task. On the other hand, the Unicode CLDR repository provides an extensive set of OSK layouts for platforms including Android, Chrome OS, and Mac OS X. So, as a first step, I wrote a procedure for creating a layout file based on the CLDR data: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Caribou/NewLayout If you come up with a new layout, please file it against the 'caribou' product on bugzilla. I have no expertise in design but should be able to do a quick review.
