[Bug 887139] Re: Middle clicking the keyboard layout indicator should cycle through possible languages

 

Ingo, you are indeed correct that behaviour of similar features should
likewise be similar, and the subject of inconsistency is very much
covered by the paper cuts project. I use a laptop with a trackpad so
have never noticed any middle-click behaviour. I guess you learn
something new every day :)

As for discussions about Unity features, there are a few places this can
be done. You can forward bug reports to unity both in Ubuntu and the
upstream package, and there is the Ayatana Design project, which handles
design work for the various Ayatana projects, which can be foud here
https://launchpad.net/ayatana-design.

Given how prominent in the Ubuntu landscape Unity is at the moment, it's
going to be deluged with bug reports, and given that the upstream
project is currently sitting at over 2200 open bugs, it's likely that
your reports may get lost in all the noise. The best place to discuss
the features of Unity is on the Ayatana mailing list, which you can join
by joining the Ayatana team here on Launchpad
(https://launchpad.net/~ayatana) and then joining the mailing list which
you can do in the bottom left of the team page.
