I bind some keys to do that in E17:

$ enlightenment_remote -binding-key-list | grep xkbmap
REPLY: BINDING CONTEXT=ANY KEY="2" MODIFIERS=CTRL|ALT ANY_MOD=0 ACTION="exec" 
PARAMS="/usr/bin/setxkbmap us_intl"
REPLY: BINDING CONTEXT=ANY KEY="1" MODIFIERS=CTRL|ALT ANY_MOD=0 ACTION="exec" 
PARAMS="/usr/bin/setxkbmap us"

I don't have an indicator of the mode I'm on, but, if I forget,
I remember it as soon as I get something I don't expect.

HTH,
Matias
