[Bug 919200] [NEW] Doesn't know system default layout/variant

 

Public bug reported:

lightdm_get_layout does not return the correct system default keyboard
layout/variant.

For that, pitti says we need to access
xkl_config->layouts[0]/xkl_config->variants[0].

Currently, we just grab the first layout returned from
xkl_config_registry_foreach_layout, which only returns the available
layouts, not the configured layouts.  So "us" will always be first
there.
