I've been having a look for one but can't find any. Am I missing something obvious?

Yeah after a while I found I had this issue. Now switched to AnySoftKeyboard and it seems to have what I need.

    I switched the other way, but I honestly don't remember why. I'll have to try AnySoft again.

    It freezes. For minutes at a time. Not often, but minutes are too long, and you cannot kill it. Also, it auto hides in the middle of typing when you type "too fast", there are words you simply cannot swipe ("never" being one, it always gives "nerve"), some that constantly are guessed wrong (common words replaced by a rather obscure alternative), and sometimes, when you type "too fast", the cursor moves one or to positions backwards as you type.

    Honestly I appreciate the effort it must have been to code, but I'm sad it has all those issues. That being said, it is still more usable than Florisboard...

    The best one I found so far was the AOSP keyboard with swiping enabled via a proprietary blob. But, well, it's not entirely opensource...
