I'm not aware of any (admittedly, it's been a while since I had a proper Linux desktop system). For keyboard layout my first thought would be to configure more layouts in the desktop environment of choice and switch between them with a keyboard shortcut or so. > I know how to do it manually using xinput and xkbcomp.
