Description
Thanks for this library, it makes cross platform keyboard stuff a lot easier.
I was wondering if it's possible to switch to CurrentInputMethodLanguageTag. It's a little painful to write the conversion from the hex identifiers.
Is there anything holding back from using this API? I'm not too familiar with the WinRT API's. Thanks!

Research direction
Start by locating the Windows keyboard-language implementation; no file or test is named in the issue. Review the CurrentInputMethodLanguageTag WinRT API and compare it with the library’s existing hex-identifier conversion. Done means determining whether the API can replace that conversion without breaking the cross-platform interface.
