As discussed with Keyboard team, Swahili uses English keyboard but has a specific layout. Adding Arky and Swahili localizer so they can help out here. 

Partners have requested this locale from 2.0 and onwards. Therefore nominating.

As far as I know, Swahili uses the plain Latin alphabet with no diacritics. Do we have anybody actually requesting this?

Adding Swahili localizers so they can give their input on if this is needed or not. Thanks!

Swahili doesn't have any special characters...it uses plain Latin alphabet as Friedel mentioned above. This is therefore not needed.
