Based on #8, I reply to #7:

According to http://blogs.gnome.org/sudaltsov/2009/12/27/gnome-keyboard-applet-as-good-as-gone/ the bug reports 1 and 2 are now invalidated, which means that in the new GNOME, the new keyboard indicator will be present automatically when the user has selected more than one layouts. It solves problems.

What is left is to check again with a 10.04 alpha/beta
a. the default keyboard layout settings when someone installs Ubuntu with Greek locale
(run gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd and report back the result)
b. identify the package that configures the layout during installation. I keep asking to be reminded of this. Can I haz a link to the configuration file that shows the default keyboard layout installation settings for Greek?
c. if someone installs Ubuntu with default locale (English), what are the steps to add the Greek layout. We want to establish that, in usability terms, the user is more likely to get it right than not.
