--- Comment #8 from Andrey <butir...@gmail.com> ---
New applet is platform-agnostic and shouldn't know which platform it currently
run on.
So to implement this check, we would need to incorporate hacks in the code,
which in turn could bring further confusions.
I'm not in favor of this.

To be clear, new applet is almost feature-reach.
But is has some rough corners currently:
- flag icons look a bit dithering, and in context menu they are additionally
resized to square and looks ugly there. I don't know easy solution for this,
other than change initial icon's aspect maybe.
The situation should be better when we move away from old .png icons in
deprecated kdelibs4support in favor of standard ones:
https://phabricator.kde.org/T13722
- lack of separator in context menu between layouts in loop and spare ones
- lack of shortcut to Keyboard KCM, should be trivial
- something I missed/not aware of, but those are all minor hopefully

So I would really encourage people to use new one.
I could make an update script disabling old applet for existing installations.
But then we would probably need some way to explain users they should re-enable
it shall they prefer the old variant.
