Oops, spoke too soon: The UI does start in French, but the keyboard is US :-/

Just to check, I also change the following section, to no avail:

label live
  menu label ^Run Lubuntu from this USB
  kernel /casper/vmlinuz
  append noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true persistent 
file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz 
splash -- locale=fr_FR.UTF-8 keyb=fr klayout=fr
label live-install
  menu label ^Install Lubuntu to Hard Disk
  kernel /casper/vmlinuz
  append cdrom-detect/try-usb=true persistent 
file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper only-ubiquity 
initrd=/casper/initrd.lz splash -- locale=fr_FR.UTF-8 keyb=fr klayout=fr

Any idea why? Could it be that the stock Lubuntu ISO only contains US 
locale, so that using a different locale won't work until I know how 
to boot from the ISO, upgrade it, save the running system into a new 
ISO, and reflash the USB key?

Thank you.
