Description Dimitris Glezos 2006-06-12 18:32:48 UTC
Please describe the problem:
When the user is prompted to enter a password to unlock the screen, there should be a keyboard layout (KL) indicator somewhere to show the user the locale he is typing in.

This problem affects people with multiple KLs. Seeing the locked screen, the user might not remember the last KL used and write many passwords cycling all of them to unlock the screen.

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
