Bug ID: 525929
Summary: visual indication of system language layout
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
For advanced users, switching from other windows to Konsole can be experienced
as annoyance if the system layout language is changed. The tray indicator is
often ignored and can be hardly noticeable, especially on large screens. Users
then forget they've changed the layout and start typing with wrong language.
For non-experienced users mostly, this can cause much serious consequences.
E.g. if user is to copy-paste command (which is never advised but all-present)
to Konsole, only to alter few characters, could cause hard to debug mistakes,
difficult if ever to be discovered. This is especially true when altering
config files or using shell redirections. Also better/harder noticeable when
using Cyrillic characters, similar to why browsers have punycode protection.
