This hasn't got anything to do with the default keyboard setting. It's a matter
of making the choice of whether to display the Western, Asian or CTL font in the
font-box be sensitive to the current keyboard layout.

You can detect the current keyboard layout on X, using e.g. libxklavier.

os raises a good question of what to do when there is text selected.  I would
say in that case continue use the script of the selected text.  The current
behavior is not a problem when there's selected text: it's unambiguous what's
intended.  There's only a problem when there's no text selected: there are
multiple things that the user might intend, and I see nothing but the keyboard
layout that can be used to disambiguate them,

Word actually goes further: it has an option to automatically change the
keyboard layout to match the script of surrounding text whenever the user moves
to a new position in the text.
