The fix we had before was very rudimentary... it basically just compared the keysyms directly. The related branch above should allow switching with modifier-only shortcuts too now.

Steps to reproduce: 1. To make things uncomfortable, switch layout to Russian or any other with your favourite shortcut(i am using alt-shift) 2. Lock the screen with ctrl-alt-l 3. Try to change layout back to English to enter password Expected: Layput should change and you should be able to login without touching anything but keyboard. What's happening: Nothing, doesn't react on the keyboard shortcut, you have to change layout using indicator on top panel.
