Ваш случай использования достаточно странный, что никто не удосужился создать интерфейс или конфигурацию, чтобы приспособить вас. Однако вы можете что-то сделать, установив три различных сочетания клавиш для следующей программы:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use 5.010; use strict; use warnings FATAL=>'all';
use Getopt::Long qw(GetOptions); use autodie qw(:all);
use Pod::Usage qw(pod2usage);
GetOptions(
'layout=s@' => \my @layouts,
'help|?' => \my $help,
'man' => \my $man,
) or pod2usage(2);
pod2usage(1) if $help;
pod2usage(-verbose => 2) if $man;
pod2usage unless 2 == @layouts;
my $xkb_identifier = qr'[\w_:()]+';
my ($current_layout)
= qx'setxkbmap -print'
=~ /xkb_symbols { include "$xkb_identifier[+]($xkb_identifier)/ms;
die "Layout '$current_layout' is active, but can only switch from: @layouts\n"
unless $current_layout ~~ @layouts;
system 'setxkbmap', grep $current_layout ne $_, @layouts;
__END__

=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<switchxkbmap> switches between exactly two layouts given as command-line
arguments. For example, to switch between Croatian and French, run
switchxkbmap -l hr -l fr
If Croatian is currently active, French will be activated and vice versa.
Or to switch between German and Russian with specific variants:
switchxkbmap --layout='de(nodeadkeys)' --layout='ru(phonetic)'
The program will abort if the current active layout does not match one
of the given layouts because it would not know to which one to switch to.
The exact names of layouts and variants can be found out by running the KDE3
Control Centre module C<kcmshell keyboard_layout> or by inspecting the files
under F</usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols>.
