Bug description:
  ******************
   HOW TO REPRODUCE
  ******************

  - Go to "system configuration / keyboard", or "system configuration /
  text input".

  ********************
   EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR
  ********************

  - To be able to set the physical keyboard LED to show an alternative
  layout: "Caps Lock", "Num Lock" or "Scroll Lock".

  ****************
   REAL BEHAVIOUR
  ****************

  - Not to be able to configure the LED behaviour.
  - The problem with this is many people tend to look at the keyboard while typing, and it's somehow exhausting for them having to look at the keyboard indicator in the screen every time they want to check in which keyboard layout they at in that moment.

  *************
   WORK-AROUND
  *************

  - Unknown.

  ******************
   RELEVANT DETAILS

  - Doesn't affect Ubuntu versions prior to 13.10 (see screen-shot).
