Title:
  LightDM defaults the keyboard layout to English every startup

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since the version which introduced the keyboard indicator today (Jan 19, 2012),
  I always have to choose my German keyboard before every single login (which is annoying).

  This way, my password is spelled incorrectly if I don't switch to the German layout.
  If I type my password "imagining" an English layout on my keyboard, GNOME session inherits the English keyboard layout.

  Setting the locale system-wide doesn't help.
  Editing /etc/environment or ~/.profile doesn't help.

  It seems LightDM ignores those settings.

  
  my system:
  ubuntu 12.04 with up-to-date packages
  LightDM 1.1.1
