Considering you cannot easily switch input method in Gnome 3.6 [1] and
that is not going to change in 3.6, I consider every other keyboard
layout issue as insignificant and F18 should be released as it is now,
because it will not be better.
That's really overplaying the issue. You can configure a perfectly
reasonable shortcut in gnome-tweak-tool. And that issue is pretty
orthogonal to many of the ones I listed.
