Add Dash (-) to characters of OSK in Navigation (City Selection)

Under navigation, when selecting the City (And possibly elsewhere like the Street, havent checked that one yet) there is no dash on the On-Screen Keyboard (OSK).

In my area there are many towns and roads with composed names separated by dashes (ex: Saint-Hubert). Not having the dash makes it impossible to input these city/street names. (And scrolling through 4000 cities that starts with "Saint" is not an option!)

Using the Postal Code is the only option for now, but thats not very practical since you don't always have that information at hand.

My Suggestion --> Add the dash (-) to the second page of the OSK (The page with numbers 0-9 is practically empty; lots of button to spare.

I'm guessing this should be a pretty straightforward thing to add.

Thanks

Seems I didn't look around enough in CF before posting this.

The UI Language and Keyboard Layout can be different.
Using the French keyboard layout does provide the dash on the OSK while the interface stays in English.
