Affects: control-center (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
current dapper:

- select an arabic keyboard (qwerty)
- gnome chooses to change all the fonts to a unreadable size
- during this change (about 20secs) the CPU goes up,
  and applications do not respond.
- the font change is reverted, when the keyboard is deselected.

looks like the keyboard chooser takes this huge amount of CPU time on
startup _and_ quit.

as a side node: the keyboard chooser get's confused, if you have your
nomal layout (in this case DE), then choose an arabic one, make arabic
the default, then remove arabic, then leave the keyboard selector. gnome
happily thinks of arabic beeing used ...
