[SOLVED] Change KDE Keyboard Layout Indicator Text

I use both the UK QWERTY layout and UK Dvorak layout on KDE, and switch between them frequently. The problem is that the indicator always shows "gb", which is sometimes confusing when I'm entering something like a password, and I don't realise I'm using the wrong layout. I can switch between them fine, but I find it annoying to have to go back and re-enter when I realise I was using the wrong layout.

Is there a way to change the indicator, so that maybe it shows "dv" instead of "gb" for when Dvorak is selected?
