Hi,

on my system there are different keyboard layouts configured, too. I use Plasma
5.8.4 and when I enter the wrong password I get the message "Login failed" or
"Unlocking failed".

In the regular case the user enters the password correctly. So not much
information is needed in this case.

What about presenting the user more hints and suggestions in case the password
was actually not accepted. For example:

"""
Login failed.
The entered password was not accepted.

Besides entering the wrong password this can have several technical reasons:
- The state of CAPS Lock: CAPS Lock is currently [enabled/disabled] (click to
change)
- The state of the Numerical Lock on laptops: Numerical Lock is currently
[enabled/disabled] (click to change)
- The selected keyboard layout which currently is [the keyboard layout] (click
to change)

If nobody is looking over your shoulder you could even make sure the settings
are correct by entering your password into the textbox below:
[standard text-box]
"""
