The 'Apply System-Wide' button has a couple of other problems:

 - it doesn't allow a user to see what the current system settings are
 - it is unclear which of the settings in the layout tab are applied to the 
system-wide settings

Would it therefore be preferable to have a separate 'System keyboard
preferences' settings dialog instead of the current 'Apply System-Wide'
button? That way you would have an 'Edit system settings' button at the
bottom of the keyboard layout tab which would open another dialog.

Another question on this topic - how does the 'Reset to Defaults' button
relate to the system-wide settings? Are these 'Defaults' the same as the
'System-Wide' settings? If they are, consistent terminology should be
used.
