  1. Very nice project! I have some suggestions: 1) better have "zero-width-space" on default space bar for better line breaks. 2) auto return to front layout after clicking on a letter with "shift". 3) add-on dictionary for Khmer language with auto-correct. 4) better have "changelog" for any updates.
