[SCIM] Cycle order of input methods

Hello,

I have a question about the cycle order of input methods.

Here's what I have in the menu at the moment.

M17N-el-kbd (Greek)
UIM-anthy (Japanese)
UIM-skk (Japanese)
UIM-romaja (Hangul)
M17N-ru-yawerty (Russian)
Smart Pinyin (Chinese simplified)

With Ctrl+Shift_L, the input method changes like this. 

UIM-skk (Japanese)  
M17N-ru-yawerty (Russian)
UIM-romaja (Hangul)
Smart Pinyin (Chinese simplified)
UIM-anthy (Japanese)
M17N-el-kbd (Greek)

I can't find any rule here. :)  When only two or three input methods are 
enabled, it's okay, but is it possible to make the cycle order correspond to 
the menu or something easier to remember?  Of course, when there are more 
input methods enabled, I wouldn't use Ctrl+Shift_L though.  I would use 
Ctrl+Alt+s and select one from the menu.  It's more practical.

Also, I think it would be nice to be able to switch to the previously *used* 
one with a simple keyboard shortcut.         

Thanks.
Yukiko
