There no any way to make extra keyboard layout to be accessible/visible in
keyboard layout choice dialog. So it is impossible to use Unity keyboard
configuration tool to set an extra keyboard layout (such as Iran: Avestan;
Lithuania: Dvorak; USA: International (AltGr Unicode combining|alternative),
Atsina, Couer D'alene Salish; Romania: Ergonomic Touchtype; Serbia: Combining
accents instead of dead keys; Russia: Church Slavonic, RUU; etc.).
KDE4 loads these layouts without any user actions.
GNOME2 makes these layouts visible in keyboard setting dialog through enabling
"load-extra-items" option.
But Unity can't do this in any way. (furthermore, as ~/.Xkbmap settings
ignoring or overriding by DE, it is impossible to set extra keyboard layout at
all without making startup script)
** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
