'Keyboard layout indicator: configure: configure: label' column is both text &
flag!

That'd be excellent/best if works in future (doesn't yet because flags are
newer unicode/emojis that paste in wrong).

It always was very distinguishable for me (may depend on flag).

For flags, customization is necessary because of dialects; we (me and users
whose PCs I administer) use British Isles (multiple) & USA English (with
international layouts only for dialects elsewhere) so flags alone are worse
than useless: dialect can only be indicated by retaining text on flag or
(another idea) changing flag. Same for French, German, Portugese, Russian,
Spanish (multiple dialects/languages in countries I'm unsure even label over
one type of flag is enough).
Dark Oxygen & dark Breeze lately had few/no system tray icon
noticeability problems but can't check others until I have indicator for my
layouts (disappeared, reported) or users whose PC I administer use dark themes
(unlikely ever)... other themes would be their own issue, anyway.
