--- Comment #79 from Stas Sergeev <stsp(a)list.ru> ---
(In reply to Mike FABIAN from comment #78)
If you use a keyboard layout, yes. This is an input engine,
(ab)used to emulate a keyboard layout.
But that is a very special case for rusle, almost all
other tables are really input engines, not keyboard layouts.
And for them, switching into direct mode does not switch to "en" but
to some unknown keyboard layout which was used before, i.e. the engine
can be toggled between on ☑ and off ☐. In “off” mode it does
not have to be US keyboard layout, it can be anything.
What exactly is anything?
How to control that?
At least this shows you clearly when the engine is in direct mode
(i.e. off) so I think this is much better then still displaying "ru"
even in direct mode as it was before.
Correct.
Then how about P (or just whatever) in direct mode,
but RU in enable mode?

What 30 layouts?
This is how I understand Comment #55:

The second is that most Japanese used to only one IME and would not like to add
two engines.
In MS-Windows 8, Ja IME only for Japanese Windows but 'US' layout and Chinese
IME for Chinese Windows.
I think European people used to switch multiple engines so they haven't worried
about about the input modes.

That's why I thought it may be a good idea to
add multiple engines when you add just one.
The Chinese engines also switch between on and off, not between
Chinese and a list of layouts.
Then I am not sure what comment 55 says...
The “☑Р” shows you clearly that you are using your rusle table,
and *not* a Russian xkb keyboard layout which would display “ru”
in the Gnome panel.
I don't understand.
I just open the configurator, click +, then click Russian,
then select Russian Legacy from the list. It says nothing
whether I am adding an xkb layout or ibus engine. How would
I know? And how would I add the Russian Legacy xkb layout
and get rid of all the ibus pain? :)
