IIRC Windows 10 handles this by implementing the input method list as a
stack of sorts, so that Win-Space selects an input method similarly to
how Alt-Tab selects a window. Pressing Win-Space once is a toggle, but
pressing Win-Space consecutively (while holding Win) cycles through all
input methods.
Emacs could do something similar. A single C-\ could toggle between the
two input methods at the top of the list, whereas any number of
consecutive C-\'s could cycle the list. The implementation would just
need to check last-command.
