Ask HN: What are your biggest pet peeves with the iOS keyboard?
Apple mentioned at their latest WWDC that they will now allow 3rd party developers to create keyboards for iOS devices.<p>What pain points do you have with the current iOS keyboard? What features and improvements could be made to make it better?

1) Special characters. A lot of them are 2 clicks away -- I would prefer to have a bigger keyboard when I click the "1,2,3" (i.e. an additional row). As clicking the "#+=" afterwards only changes one row.
2) I'd love to try a swipe/gesture interface (like Android).
3) A keyboard optimized for one-handed typing. This is a bigger project but would be great. The ones I've seen so far aren't very good and obviously don't actually replace the default keyboard.

The lack of gesture/swipe typing.
