When I select Greek locale in Ubiquity, I do get the keyboard icon in my
default desktop view.

And IMHO that new keyboard icon which wasn't there on previous versions
is just consuming vital panel space which is where applications main
menus are displayed. I don't need the icon to realize that [En]/[El] is
where I have to click to switch keyboard layouts.

Gnome classic had two panels and never used such an icon; Unity has only
one (overloaded) panel. Please don't waste the space. I think it would
be much better if the keyboard icon was completely removed.
