Exactly.

It's less about forgetting and more about spending time on this. Like even if
keyboard layout was shown near the password field or somewhere in a visible
place (which would still be a nice touch, like these "you have caps lock on"
notices), but I would still have to check if it's the right layout and switch
it if it's not, and for me that takes as much time as entering my password. But
if it just automatically used English, I could just type my password in a
second without worrying about my keyboard layout. 

I understand that it may not be an easy feature to implement, so it's fine even
if it won't be implemented for year(s). But it definitely will be my next
favorite feature, after remapping Caps Lock to switching keyboard layouts.
