Bug report - missing option for semicolon in standard QWERTY keyboard - arnholt - 2021-12-04

When trying to input a password for a SAMBA field using the on-screen keyboard, there is no option for a semicolon.  Both the lowercase and uppercase fields show a colon; I feel this should only be true for the uppercase field.  There is no way to input a semicolon.  I think this is an error.  Developers, am I missing something?  Apologies if so.  Thanks much.

You're right.  Will ask if there's a reason.

In the meantime you can hack it into system\keyboardlayouts\english.xml in your Kodi installation if you need it.
