Thank you and Mr. Adsen.
However, I DO NOT follow you.
I do not understand, what I am supposed to do with all those programming
like things.
Then again, since I am in the middle of installing 16.04 ... all this
may not matter any longer ??

Hi!
I'm using both the german and the english keymapping on my machines. I
don't really know about special character languages like japanese
behave but I guess it should be the same, concidering the right
locales are activated and installed on your machine.
Anyway, here's what I use in my $HOME/bin/ directory:
:~$ cat bin/keyboard.sh
#!/bin/bash
# configure machine to use both the english and german keyboard layout
# switch between layouts by pressing "roll"
# glowing "roll-LED" indicates that the german layout is present
setxkbmap -layout us,de # setup two keyboard layouts.
'us' will be the default
setxkbmap -option grp:sclk_toggle # switch between keyboard layouts
via scroll lock key
setxkbmap -option grp_led:scroll # indicate that I'm using the
alternative layout (de)

15.10 goes EOL in three months.

Put '/usr/bin/setxkbmap -option grp:lalt_lshift_toggle' in
~/.xsessionrc and log out and back in. See 'man xkeyboard-config' for
other options or alternative keybindings.
