Title:
  Don't anchor search term for type to search keyboard layout

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  On the keyboard layout selection, one can simply type away his desired
  layout. A "find"-like dialog pops up with the input and the list is
  rolled to the first matching item (e.g. typing "slo" will match
  "slovenian").

  I believe this would be nice if typing "bra" matched "portuguese
  (brazil)", but the search is hard-anchored so it is not matched.
  Better, in my opinion, would be to use \b{search term} in Perl or
  regex \<{search term} with GNU regex.
