The Keyboard Preferences opens the 'Region & Language' dialog

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

TEST CASE:
1. Click on the keyboard indicator on the panel to open the menu
2. Click on 'Keyboard Preferences'

Result
It opens the 'Region and Language' preference and the active tab is 'Language'. Keyboard preferences is another gnome-conctrol-center applet.

Expected:
Rename 'Keyboard Preferences' to 'Keyboard Layout'
The 'Region and Language' preference opens directly on the Layouts tab.

gsd-keyboard-xkb.c calls "gnome-control-center region" in the upstream code and they call it "Keyboard Preferences"

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The upstream fallback session status icon should have the same issue so the bug can be reported to GNOME

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The upstream code might also lack a way to select a tab in the dialog when opening it

[Vladimir Scherbaev (zemik)]

In my case click to "Keyboard Preference" simply open "System Settings".

This got fixed in a recent control-center update.
