@Simos: I agree that you do see the subscript with the current version
of Lucid so the issue in comment #2 seems to have been resolved. I also
agree that the area in the panel is limited. This is still a valid
usability issue though, especially for users who use several keyboard
layouts on a regular basis. I don't think it would be necessary to
include the whole variant code name in the panel but enough information
to make it non-ambiguous such as an abbreviation of the variant, e.g.
GBr Dv for United Kingdom Dvorak would go a long way to resolve this.
