the global shortcut for switching keyboard layout to
defocus the current window

SUMMARY
Attaching the Keyboard Layout widget to a panel causes the global shortcut for
switching keyboard layout to defocus the current window. This upsets the flow
of trying to type with multiple keyboard layouts, as you have to re-focus the
window every time you switch the layout.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure a shortcut to switch keyboard layouts (system settings -> keyboard
-> advanced -> switching to another layout -> win + space) (problem occurs on
any set shortcut)
2. On a second monitor, add a new default panel (right-click desktop -> enter
edit mode -> add panel -> default panel)
3. Add the keyboard layout widget (add widgets -> keyboard layout)
4. Drag the keyboard layout widget to the newly created default panel
5. Open any application
6. Press the layout-switch shortcut
OBSERVED RESULT
Currently selected application loses focus, must re-select to continue typing.
EXPECTED RESULT
Don't lose window focus, and continue typing as normal.
