Keyboard layouts plugin forgets settings after logout

[Dmitri]

I just installed a fresh Xubuntu 12.04 and added the keyboard layout indicator to the panel.

First, keyboard settings in the settings manager, and those in layouts indicator plugin, are different.

Second, keyboard settings in the SM don't have layout changing and compose key settings.

Third, every time you log on, keyboard layout indicator takes the settings from SM (the order of layouts) and forgets the change shortcut and the compose key setting.

This was an issue half a year ago in 11.10, but there's a hack on the internets, to hard-code some settings somewhere. But that's not what the app is supposed to do. If there are settings, I expect them to be saved between sessions; if there are keyboard layout settings, legitimately I expect them to be unified.
