Keyboard suggestions like in Blackberry OS 10

I'm using Blackberry OS 10 phones for 4 years, and it has the best onscreen keyboard I ever used.
The main point of this keyboard, is the suggestion words appearing not on the top of the keyboard, but above the next letter. You can continue typing the word or you can just swipe up, and the word is typed. Like on the picture below.
It very fast intuitive typing method.
The feature request is realize this keyboard in SFOS.
Missing that keyboard. None of the current popular os has that feature.

Though still Jolla might be better off not trying to implement that feature just to be sure not to get sued.

I am sure it is protected by BB, therefore I dont think Jolla will touch it and I dont think the communtiy will build it.
