Public bug reported:

Steps:
* go to a conversation
* select a non-default keyboard layout
* go to a different conversation
* select a different keyboard layout
* go back to the first conversation

Expected:
* the selected layout should be restored for each conversation

Current:
* layout is "global" for the whole session

Thinking about the solution... it'd probably be best if text fields had
a "context" property that the input method could read and restore
layouts per context. If a field had no context, it would fall back to
the generic behaviour - per-c

Rationale: you generally change layouts per contact, to write to someone
in a different language.
