Inconsistent keybinds with other keyboard layouts

The game inconsistently reads my system keyboard layouts I have set.

Recently I switched to a Dvorak layout on my keyboard for a (supposedly) faster typing setup although the issue arises with ONI keybinds. I have a hotkey to quickly switch back and forth between qwerty if I need to although the game only seems to read my layout only once during startup so if I accidentally start in qwerty the controls are messed up I need to restart the game in dvorak which makes things a huge hassle.

What I would expect to happen is either: A. The game forces the use of qwerty or B. The game has better detection on when your layout is changed.
 

Steps to Reproduce
1. Load the game in any keyboard layout 2. Test out keybinds 3. switch to another layout while in game (ex. QWERTY to Dvorak vice versa) 4. Keybinds are still the same as the layout you started with not the one you're currently using

I have been using Dvorak for 6 years and there are many games that can detect your current keyboard and use positional bindings. By the time I switched Minecraft could already do that, and my current favorite, Factorio, added this feature about two years ago.

I usually don't mind going through the keybindings page when it's short and simple, but this is definitely not the case with ONI. The fact that it automatically unsets on binding conflicts make this effort a real nightmare.
