/etc/default/keyboard:
XKBOPTIONS="grp:shift_caps_switch,compose:ralt"

- [CapsLock] to select first layout
- [Shift+CapsLock] to select second layout
- [RightAlt] for Compose

Gnome can not handle CapsLock as layout switch though.

So 2 or 3 keyboard layouts and Compose for other languages may be an option.
