Please make mechanism for adding custom keyboards to applicatoin

I'm making Mitakuuluu - WhatsApp client for Sailfish. And the most tricky part of development is implementing emoji keyboard. Harmattan have simple QML properties for changing keyboard, i can set my own Component as software input panel. But Silica have no such methods. I'm starting to rewrite ApplicationWindow component to reserve bottom space for my custom keyboard on demand, but its very dirty hack.
