When switching languages by swiping spacebar, refresh the suggestions
Using two languages, both were active. I typed a word, but there was no suggestion I expected.
Swiped the spacebar to activate my primary language alone, then pressed backspace, re-typed last character to refresh the suggestions according to just primary language and the desired suggestion appeared!
Could the suggestions be refreshed automatically?

@CEE this turned out to be a bug, not a missing feature. The keyboard did refresh the bar after the language switch, but it reused the cached result for the same word, so the new suggestions only showed up once a letter changed. Fixed now: swiping the spacebar (same for the globe and the language picker) redoes the suggestions for the word you're typing right away. It'll be in 2.1.3, the next App Store update.
One related change: if you've just swiped a word and then switch languages, the bar keeps the swipe alternatives instead of jumping to next-word predictions.
If you still remember which word didn't show up with both languages on, send it over. I'd like to check why mixed mode pushed it out.
Ufff, unfortunately no recollection about the word but will keep an eye on this and make sure I make it part of the comment next time.
Tried a couple words, updates the suggestions as expected.
One of the words is "spremembo", an inflection of base word "sprememba".
See the screenshots. With Slovenian and English active, I get two Slovenian suggestion and one english, and that english feels far off.
Switching to Slovenian only, brings the third form as a suggestion, the one I was expecting/looking.
Would it make more sense to push that word as a suggestion, as it is closer than "supreme"?
