What about implementing a new option for /etc/lxdm.conf - e.g

[base]
store-keyboard=0/1

If this option is set to 1
* on start lxdm gets the last keyboard from var/lib/lxdm.conf / entry
'last_keyboard'. If this value is not set, it gets X11 default
* on end lxdm gets current keyboard from X11 and stores it to
var/lib/lxdm.conf / entry 'last_keyboard'

With this option set, lxdm would for me behave as expected. The
keyboard last selected (either in lxdm-greeter or e.g within the
session by panel plugin) is default on next startup.

Would such a change have a chance getting applied?
