Should do something about this for GNOME2. Either disallow editing for
now or make the necessary changes.
Comment 2 Kevin Vandersloot 2002-05-10 14:27:19 UTC 
Shooby: should we just remove the functionality for now? Do users need
to change the information?
Comment 3 Reinout van Schouwen 2002-05-11 16:09:19 UTC 
Yes users need to make changes that should be saved. When doing
translations I want to be able to switch back and forth between US 105
and US International. But every time I log out and log in again I have
the Hungarian keyboard back (see bug 81388). Very annoying.
Comment 4 Reinout van Schouwen 2002-05-11 16:22:29 UTC 
Yesterday a patch that might fix this was attached to bug 81303 !
