Switchable keyboard layouts

The easiest way to accomplish this is to set this using XKB settings, for example:

input {
    kb_layout = us,pl
    kb_options = grp:alt_shift_toggle
}

The first layout defined in the input section will be the one used for binds.

For example: us,ua -> config binds would be e.g. SUPER, A, while on ua,us -> SUPER, Cyrillic_ef

If you want to disable all keybinds with another keybind (make a kaybind toggle of sorts) you can just use a submap with only a keybind to exit it.

bind=MOD,KEY,submap,clean
submap=clean
bind=MOD,KEY,submap,reset
submap=reset
