Gesture dict shortcuts

[cinnabar777]

Currently you can add a word or phrase to the personal dictionary with a shortcut and you'll be able the gesture that shortcut for the word or phrase.

However this does not work for shortcuts that are in a binary dict file, you must tap the shortcut.

Example:

word=fk,f=0
  shortcut=FUTO keyboard

"FUTO keyboard" with the shortcut "fk"

When in the personal dictionary swiping from f to k gets you "FUTO keyboard" as the output.

When in the dict file swipe produces no result, tapping "fk" gets "FUTO keyboard" as one of the suggestions.

I know this is possible because FUTO keyboard implemented it with their new gesture typing algorithm recently.

Part of the reason for this is so certain misspelled words are corrected automatically during the gesture, and words with hyphens and apostrophe or periods like domain names.

Just in case someone isn't sure what I'm talking about here are some words with their shortcuts from the pre-compiled wordlist for AOSP dictionaries:
