Right, the good reason for appending the 'us' group is having shortcuts work 
with non-latin layouts.

I guess bug #1218322 is what happens when that fails.

Unfortunately for us, that behavior is plain hard coded in gnome/unity-
settings-daemon. I don't see a way to select the 'it' layout without
getting the 'us' one tacked on, even though both are latin layouts. I'd
still say it's difficult to maintain this is a bug in u-s-d. What we
really need is a fix for the unexpected group switches, rather than
stopping u-s-d/g-s-d from setting up multiple groups. That would have
just been nice to have as another workaround. I'll duplicate this one to
the X bug #837456 then, that's the best I currently have.
