There will always be a way to allow users to indicate layouts using
flags (as long as I maintain GNOME xkb indicator at least). It can be
hidden, non-documented, whatever (so GNOME would not take political
responsibility) - but I will keep that code. Most of the users have no
political troubles with flags - while usability-wise, flags still
remain the best way to distinguish between layouts. The code is
actually in the core applet - the plugin just provides nice UI for
downloading flags from sf.net and setting proper gconf flag.

To make the situation a bit better I did the following thing:
- Removed the item from the applet popup menu
- Created .desktop file for the plugin manager which puts it into
AdvancedSettings
I am open to other suggestions. All I am kindly asking is to keep (in
the darkest UI corner, whatever) this executable accessible for the
user.


Thanks for removing the plugin menu item, anyway. Not installing
the desktop file is easier than patching it out of the applet...
