Bug Description
Hi,
When using the terminal in a phone facto, there are 2 main bad issue:
* typing is not as productive than hardware keybaord, so as user, all things are good to reduce the number of (software) key pushed needed.
* the current design force the user to swap panel to panel everytimes (panel Fx to panel arrow, etc)
The tab key is often used to find autocompletion. Because we change panel of button often, we might do more action to do an autocompletion that we would need to finish the string.
I would love to see an integration of this by UX more than the only TAB button(could be a horizontal scroll, could be a push to the suggestion of the software keyboard, could be a layout keyboad with more keys like tab, ...)

Can you just confirm; you would like to see a horizontal scroll to simulate a tab? If so; could you specify whether it should be left or right, or both?
