On the other hand, though, it would be useless visual noise for those - presumably the majority of users - who don't switch the layout. Maybe it could be only shown if users actually have several layouts active, or follow the visibility of the layout switcher in the systray?

Maybe we could use the "keyboard_layout_widget" plugin to add to the chat tab or the chat window.
But I am not sure when should we start adding this widget, do we make it as a configuration parameter in Chat Tab Behaviour settings ?
