Signal already has problems with pissing people off by having annoying user interfaces for security reasons. This seems like a pointless measure.
If you can’t trust the keyboard software installed on your phone then surely you don’t trust the os either. But if you don’t trust the os then what’s the point?

Users who are not technical enough to understand this will get themselves in trouble. China is especially at risk due to both having oppressive censorship and a language that needs sophisticated keyboards for entering characters.
