More than anything, I'd like a one-handed steno scheme to become available. It would be a game-changer for wearable and XR input.
Unfortunately, I think English language input will always be at a disadvantage compared to those that use ideograms. Steno-ing radicals would be ideal; one stroke per "word" without having to worry about pronunciation.
Swype-style input is actually quite fast, but the necessity of looking directly at the keyboard to ensure any measure of accuracy is limiting. I wonder if force feedback to help users know where on the keyboard their finger currently is, as well as improved input of punctuation, might bring it up to steno's speed (which would be revelatory in a world where a huge portion of text input is done on mobile devices).
