[Bug 550704] Re: Keyboard indicator not enabled by default for non-English installations of Kubuntu

[Sergey V. Udaltsov]

Harold, you're talking nonsense. People need multiple layouts, people
need indication. Please listen to the people who actually use kubuntu in
multi-lang environments.

Even for French, German and other languages using latin alphabet, it is
_quite_ frequently useful to see the indication - they may switch
between us and, say, fr layouts. I seen that many times.

For languages that are not using latin alphabet - it is ESSENTIAL -
because they have to use at least 2 layouts - one for ASCII, one for
their native language.

Trust me, I am the person who maintains GNOME keyboard layout indicator.
As far as I know, vanilla KDE4 is reasonable with layout indication, I
happen to know the guy who maintain the KDE layout indicator. Should I
invite him here to explain the right behaviour and reasons behind it?
