Title:
Ubuntu Touch should allow alternative keyboard layouts

Bug description:
It would be nice if alternative keyboard layouts were available for
Ubuntu Touch.
On Android devices I use the Hacker's Keyboard
https://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/ from F-Droid
https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard&fdid=org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard
as this allows customisation and easy access to keys such as Ctrl,
Esc, !, : and - and these are keys that take a lot of key presses with
the current Ubuntu touch keyboard (I use vim). In addition key
combinations such as Ctrl-n and Ctrl-p (next and previous channel in
IRSSI) are not possible with the current Ubuntu Touch keyboard.
Having said the above the gestures, double tap for tab, swipe up, down
, left and right for the arrow keys is great and I now find myself
trying to use these gestures on Android devices...
