@suor, @ssy. 
There is a workaround for the ugly icons too. 
m17n uses the icons located in usr/share/m17n/icons/
In my case (Greek), it was "el-kbd.png". 
You can substitute the m17n-icon with an icon of your liking. I have tried to use the default Unity icon located in /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/status/22/ and it works even though the Unity icon is in svg format
Namely, I have renamed "indicator-keyboard-Gr.svg" to "el-kbd.png" and placed it in usr/share/m17n/icons/

I am not sure whether it works all the time. Please confirm

Bug description:
  New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce  old-new bug. Any system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected non-latin keyboard layout.
  Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly.

  Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
  parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard
  layout.

  Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
  latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead
  of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
  english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin
  layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.

  For other layout switching problems introduced in Ubuntu 13.10 you can see bug 1218322.
