I agree this dialog is a good candidate for paper cuts as a priority. I am also 
not clear what the apply does when the default radio option is on and off.
Note that as I understand it the login screen layout does not change, as 
username is restricted to latin characters as it is used to create files.. Also 
users must be able to type in characters used to establish their account 
information.

The user must switch to the layout in order to either use the test input box or 
set the layout for their session. This is done by a key sequence for "Layout 
Switching" (Alt-alt or shift-alt as defined in Layout options)
Suggestions:
There needs to be a button to Set the selected layout as active for the 
session, i.e. switch layouts
The user needs to easily test the new layout in the input field.
There needs to be better visibility into the means for switching to the next 
layout, or a specific layout, at any time.
The apply button should go away or get better definition.
