I have two layouts configured En and Ru with Ctrl-Shift as layout switch
combo.

When I start typing in wrong layout I notice it, hit Ctrl-Shift and type again, but more often than not it is wrong layout again.
I repeat the action, but there is no luck. On the third attemt it usually either works OR the first letter is still in wrong layout, but the second is in correct one - i.e. layout switches as I type.

The explanation for this is that layout switch takes very unreasonable
time - much longer than it is needed to move your fingers from  one key
to the other. Each time I encounter the error I retry slower so on the
third attempt it is slow enough to actually recognize that layout switch
is happening, but with a delay.

This is extremely annoying and unacceptable. If someone knows how to
work around it - please post your suggestions here. It would be nice to
have a solution for 3+ layouts setup as well.
