Test case (from bug 891521):
1. Configure two keyboard layouts (us and other);
2. Open a gedit window, set the layout to other;
3. Open a terminal window, ensure that the layout is us;
4. Switch to gedit window.

What should happen:
Layout indicator should display other layout's name.

What happens instead:
Layout indicator displays "us", but typing text results in text in other layout.

  keyboard layout indicator reacts incorrectly

Bug description:
  Hi there,

    there are few bug reports similar to this one but from their
  description I feel like this is a little different.

    I use three different keyboard layouts, switching between them with
  shortcut and having "Allow different layouts for individual windows"
  option enabled. In this configuration layout switch should be
  processed when shortcut is triggered or when I switch to another
  window. Moreover "to switch layout" means two things. Firstly it means
  to switch keyboard mappings themself and secondly to change what
  layout indicator shows.

    The problem itself: mappings which is used is often not the same as
  indicator shows. I experimented a little to find out what is wrong and
  now I see that the mistake is in processing switch-window event which
  always changes mappings used but doesn't refresh what indicator is
  showing...

    Sometimes it's quite annoying as nearly all bugs reported here :)
  This is my first bug report ever so correct me or reguest mroe info if
  I have fogotten something.
