Title:
  Keyboard layout indicator displays country instead of language

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Released
Status in indicator-keyboard package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I think the keyboard layout indicator should display the language name
  or abbreviation instead of a country name. First, as far as I know,
  you don't actually use two country layouts of the same language, so
  this information is not important after you configure your keyboard
  layouts. Second, as an Israeli I find it strange to have "USA" written
  there, as English is an international language. Indeed, computers
  exported to Israel use the USA layout, but this is just a technical
  detail.
