Title:
  Switching between letter and character layout is slow

Status in ubuntu-keyboard:
  In Progress
Status in ubuntu-keyboard package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  While switching between upper and lower case is quite rapid, changing
  between letters and characters is very slow.

  I'm guessing that one codepath causes just the labels of the QML
  buttons to update, while the other makes a ton of new QML objects.

  This makes entering passwords needlessly annoying, as you have to wait
  for the keyboard to catch up all the time.
