And I don't think it is too much of benefit of using two scripts in one
source to compensate the need to constantly switching. Do you
have a method to input e.g. Cyrillic and Latin without switching the
layout? If I just use few extra chars, then I'll bind a keyboard shortcut.
but even a two-language input is annoyance.
And I need to use Cyrillic and Latin constantly, so I know how it feels.
