I suspect any such thing would be a bit messy unless it comprehended mouse actions as well.
One might type into a box, click another, and continue typing.
Even harder is to deal with “typing replaces selection” scenarios.

Great insight, thank you. Yes, so, the splitting engine would have to be really flexible and sophisticated, listening to not just the keystrokes but also to mouse clicks.

An OS agnostic solution would be a keyboard hardware keylogger [1]. I have no idea who sells a modern version but I'm sure they must still exist. I used them extensively in the past to see if anyone was screwing with my computer. Some of them can transmit over bluetooth or wifi to download stored keystrokes.
Example [2] never tried this one
