Three way Windows 8 improves language support

Switching keyboard layouts and language settings under Windows and on other Desktop OSs I find something of a minefield.

It should be easy to just jump on somebody elses machine and change language and keyboard settings mid session, and at session start up.

I would ideally like to have a global system setting, which could be overridden on a user session or on a per app basis.

The shortcut to the control panel ideally will be painfully obvious - just a click away. So that if I sat down in front of another PC that currently was set for Arabic and Colemak (let's say it's possible hypothetically...), I could quickly take control and switch to my personal preferences. Could pair programming work?

I especially dislike the way this is currently done under Windows, so welcome change.
