As part of the big bug review for 16.04 LTS I have tested this on 15.10 and the bug is still there.

No special steps are needed to reproduce this issue, just being in a Unity session. Previously this information was provided by the gnome-panel-applet called "AccessX Status" which displayed a row of icons which would show either latched or locked for each modifier key. In GNOME 2.x, I would right click a panel, select "Add to Panel" and choose "Keyboard Accessibility Status" This would give me a line of 6 square icons representing Alt, Ctrl, Super etc. These icons change state depending on which keys are being (temporarily or permanently) locked by stickykeys. While stickykeys seems to work - in that keys are latched/locked as one would expect - the lack of information about their state renders the feature considerably less usable. For some users, myself included, this is a critical a11y failure and requires using the GNOME 2.x environment instead of Unity. This is now the third time I've reported this bug/problem, hopefully I've got it in the right place this time! Apologies if not, and please do let me know where I should be reporting this if not here.
