I have a suggestion (having just come across this exact same ADD problem
of US/UK keyboards): open the 'keyboards' control panel (OS8) and click
beside UK and US keyboards in the list to check/tick them. Close the
control panel and you'll get a little flag beside the finder menu which
will let you switch easily between the two keyboard setting without having
to open control panels all the time.
Still not ideal, but pretty minimal hassle really.
But the sooner apple get on the case the better.
