Successfully upgraded my 12.04 to 14.04.
In 12.04 I had Alt+Shift L for layout swithing, so I set this combination on the first login in 14.04 ('gnome-control-center keyboard' for GNOME FlashBack, 'unity-control-center keyboard') to Alt+Shift L and it works as expected.
So keyboard layout switching is working, so this bug seems to be fixed.

But there are other bugs, which are not fixed:
* bug 1299519 - Unable to rename new folder in GtkFileChooserDialog while changing keyboard layout
    this bug is related to bug 1244090 - Pressing keyboard shortcut to switch keyboard layout causes temporary loss of focus
* bug 1280759 - Unity shortcuts (Super+A/F/M/C/V) do not work on non-latin layout in Trusty - shortcuts are defined via keyboard layout, not the keys
* bug 1226962 - Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout in 13.10 and 14.04
    works in Unity, but not in GNOME FlashBack sessions
* bug 1245473 - Binding ctrl+shift, alt+shift, etc for switching keyboard layout makes shortcuts with ctrl+shift, etc not working in any program
     works in Unity, but not in GNOME FlashBack sessions
* bug 1245137 - hotkeys for keyboard layout switching do not work in unity-greeter in Saucy and Trusty
* bug 1244548 - Keyboard shortcut for changing keyboard layout does not work on lock screen
    this bug is fixed for unity-greeter, but is not fixed for gnome-screensaver
