[Bug 475280] Re: Variant keyboard layouts are numbered with a subscript instead of something more descriptive

I can confirm that with the United Kingdom layouts too. Steps to
reproduce:

1. Go to System -> Preferences -> Keyboard
2. Select the Layout tab
3. Click Add...
4. Select the same country as your primary layout but a different variant.
5. Click Add
6. Click Close

Expected behaviour:
The keyboard layout indicator in the top panel displays the currently selected keyboard layout in a way that is non-ambiguous

Actual behaviour:
The keyboard layout indicator in the top panel only displays a subscript, like GBr and GBr2, which is not enough to unambiguously identify what layout is selected.
