There is another caveat with swipe in languages that write some words capitalized. The prediction fails to capitalize correctly in the middle of a sentence. The overhead to edit the word to the correct capitalization is so large, that swipe doesn't feel useful at all. A menu entry or gesture to capitalize the selected word would be really handy.

With gboard on Android, if you highlight a word and tap shift, it will go from lowercase to Capitalized to SHOUTING case.

That's cool. Does gboard have some help that talks about such hidden features?
