> How exactly should that work when switching between applications? There can be 3 scenarios: 1. If you switch to the "classic" app (which does not support "context-driven" layouts), there are no changes: - if DE/WM implements "layout per window" mode, each application "remembers" its layout. - otherwise the layout is preserved on switching 2. If the app supports "context-driven" layouts, the layout would be changed depending on where you caret would be put to, immediately after switch.

Of course, this all should be optional behavior - like per-window layout settings in GNOME these days. But I think many people would actually like that idea - it would save some keypresses in situations where necessary layout is obvious.
