There is something wrong about this applet

For a while I was using F9 in en_US locale and added a few locations to the applet. Then I switched over to bn_IN and landed up with the applet as above.
- In bn_IN I cannot use input in en_US to “Find” locations. Which is somewhat accepted after Runa convinced me about the need to use bn_IN input to search for locations which have their names translated. I’d have preferred that I could search using en_US names, but that is a minor usage annoyance.
- What is worrisome is that after I switch locales, why does the location drop down end up being a mix of en_US and bn_IN ? Should it not fall back to all bn_IN mapping the already added en_US locations to their bn_IN translations ?
Is this a bug ? If so, what do I file it for ?
Moving on … the gdm seems to be messed up for Ubuntu (original photo link) and possibly for Fedora as well.
sankarshan blogs about stuff that interests him and sometimes the same things interest others too. All that is just an excuse by him to start a conversation
