Public bug reported:

Currently the default keyboard shortcut combination for switching
keyboard layouts in "Keyboard Indicator" applet, is "Alt+Alt".

This key combination does not work.

In Windows, the default shortcut is "Alt+Shift".

I suggest using "Alt+Shift" as the default shortcut for keyboard layout
switching, for two reasons:

1. The current "Alt+Alt" combination does not work.
2. "Alt+Shift" combination is familiar to people switching from Windows to 
Linux. Also people who switch from Linux to Windows will also find it 
convenient that they have to use the same shortcut to switch between different 
keyboard layouts.
