Bug description:
  With two keyboard layouts (layout1 and layout2, where layout1 is the default for the session)
  1) lock the screen with CTRL-ALT-l
  2) touch mouse to bring up screensaver dialog
  3) switch keyboard layout to layout2 (and note keyboard indicator indicates layout change)
  4) enter password *as if layout1 was active* [1]
  5) screen is unlocked
  6) switch back to layout1

  Repeat, but this time skip step 3 - screen is still unlocked. That is,
  it seems that although the screensaver dialog indicates that it
  changes the layout - it is always using the one layout.
