It definitely is annoying distraction when it appears automatically.
Additionally, it's not a helpful indicator when I actually want to change input sources with a keyboard shortcut. Only a small toggle is shown near the input field. It only shows an icon, never the full name of the source. This is confusing when using multiple custom input sources that all have a default icon.
Before Sonoma, when switching input sources with a keyboard shortcut, a large menu in the center of the screen would be shown with available options that also showed the names and not just the icons.
Also, in Sonoma, if an input field is not focused, some times no menu/notification is shown at all when changing with a shortcut, but the input source still changes.
Interestingly, I’m not occasionally getting the old larger menu when no input field/box is focused, and some times not. The whole thing is confusing.
Is there some place that we can file an official feedback request?
