How can I use a DVORAK layout on iPad OS?

I have a brand new iPad Pro with a Smart Keyboard, but I can't find a way to set it to the DVORAK layout. Any suggestions? Any way we can influence Apple to add this layout? Shouldn't be that hard to do :)

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi

With the keyboard connected, go to settings > general > keyboard > hardware keyboard and tap over at the right edge and choose Dvorak from the options you get.
