Wrong keyboard layout correction

[skaunov]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
"I'm always frustrated when..." user forget to switch keyboard layout and send search request.

Describe the solution you'd like

Use Yandex solution when they recognize it and offer correction. Also it's useful enough to run such a string (sometimes received from somebody) through Yandex to get corrected one.

Presumably technology is based on <Punto.RU>.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternative technology historically was <Xneur.RU>. (See xneur deb package.)

Hi, I am trying to fully understand the issue.
Are you saying that if a person has more than 1 language keyboard layout on their system, you would like our system to recognize if they are using the users preferred keyboard layout or not?
Do you think adding a default language and a preferred keyboard layout to the user settings, then having the search bar inform the user if they are on a different keyboard layout would help solve this issue?

No it won't, the input shown already serves this purpose, and the problem happens when an user doesn't pay attention to the screen.

Not quite... I pretty sure current solutions work even when they have no information about layouts user have. It just checks the query if this combination of symbols is more probable in another layout and if it's so it offers to correct the search without retyping.
