yerk, that’s why I can’t use GNOME on desktop, the one-fit-for-all thinking because configurability is a burden for the developers
I prefer the KDE view where they seems to have the extreme opposite view ‘lack of configurability is a burden for the users’
For me the current keyboard (terminal version) works very fine in the Librem5 
– I can see here how it can be improved for others – but I’m a bit atypical as I’m not used to IOS nor Android keyboards
