[Bug 1070323] [NEW] Double keyboard icons in "Try Ubuntu" splash screen

[era]

Public bug reported:

When I boot the Ubuntu 12.10 Live CD, there is a splash screen with a
toolbar, a language picker, and two big buttons "Try Ubuntu" and
"Install".

On the toolbar, in the upper right corner, are a number of icons.  Two
of these are identical, as far as I can tell, although they show
different menus when you click on them.  I cannot figure out what the
items in the rightmost menu mean, but in any event, I would consider it
a bug that there is no way to visually discern these two menus.

If you need to explain to someone on the phone how to switch to a non-US
keyboard, it's hard enough without the additional confusion of two
identical but distinct toolbar icons.

This is on the 12.10 release Live CD, tried both i386 and amd64.

vbvntv$ md5sum ubuntu-12.10-desktop-*

b4191c1d1d6fdf358c154f8bf86b97dd  ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso

Xubuntu looks different (it doesn't have the toolbar, so no toolbar
buttons either.)
