[Bug 434351] Re: gnome-language selector is labyrinthine

[Vlad]

Agree with Niall's comment #2 above - it took me long time to realize
that the greyed out items in the list are not inactive and that it is
necessary to drag the items in order to make them active.

Title:
  gnome-language selector is labyrinthine

Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: language-selector

  As of 09.10 Karmic ...

  An ample list of installed languages is awkward to determine in gnome-language-selector.
  (browsing through a long list, missing, and risking to forget the beginning as you reach the end )

  If installed languages were moved to the top (before a separator or to another list), it would both ease to quickly see what is currently installed and to tell that from what has been marked for installation or unmarked for removal.
  Otherwise said, the language position in the list would be the current installation status and the mark would be the to-be status (any mark below is an addition request, any mark missing from the top is a removal request).
  That would be crystal clear.

  Hoping it'll be simple enough to do.

  Update: and maybe even more following comment #4?
