While the body of the article is pretty good on the whole there are some inaccuracies. The title would imply that KMFL is all about switching between keyboards when in fact this feature is provided by SCIM. One of the key goals of KMFL to support complex minority writing systems which are not addressed by input methods such as XKB. Languages such as Thai require input sequence validation, and character reordering based on surrounding context. KMFL also makes writing keyboards much easier than trying to wade through the morass of XKB.
