Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Wishlist
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
I use Ubuntu on a computer with a QWERTY keyboard. Sometime I change the 
keyboard setting to QWERTZ to write in a non-english language. Unfortunately my 
password contains a Y. Thus I run into trouble when I try to unlock my screen 
after a coffee break because I don't know if it is configured to QWERTZ or 
QWERTY. Thus a notification about the selected keyboard layout in the window 
where I have to enter my password would be usefull.
It seems not usefull to show these notification to people who don't change 
their default keyboard layout. Thus it should show up only if the keyboard is 
configured to a non default layout or if the user has several keyboard layouts 
available.
