Using the real keyboard with a different layout, I've an azerty keyboard
on my laptop and /etc/default/keyboard contains

"XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="fr"
XKBVARIANT="oss"
XKBOPTIONS="""

xorg picks those value and let me type in azerty, but when using
unity8/mir the layout is qwerty. Out of respecting the default system
value the server also needs to provide an API for clients to get/change
the active layout since that's something quite some user need
(especially when dealing with input methods)
