I see one disadvantage related to the "Remember your localisation options".

I feel the language + the keyboard + units should be in a same block and
the "Remember" bouton just underneath so there is no doubt that this
button is for all this configurations (more or less like in the curent
mockup).

We could have something like :


=======================
|                     |
|    language         |
|                     |
|    keyboard         |
|                     |
|    units            |
|                     |

========== remember===|


or


=========================================
|             |         |               |
|    language | keybord |  units        |
|             |         |               |

======================== remember=======|
