So in the design spec, I took a different approach: “The ‘Keyboard
layout’ screen should appear immediately before whichever is the first
keyboard-requiring step. This might be, for example, ‘Connect to the
Internet’, ‘Allocate disk space’, or ‘Where are you’.”

Unfortunately, no-one has implemented that detail yet. I’d be delighted
if someone could.

I like the reasoning but it's pretty heavy refactoring.

With more deliberation, we're starting to think Ubiquity is over-complicated. With the move to GNOME, it may be time for new installer. We're going to investigate another approach.

Installation = Boot to live session that prompts and configures language and kb layout > desktop/dash icon for installation > new installer with disk+encryption setup only. GNOME Initial Setup for user config on first boot.

We're just determining feasibility at this point. Thanks for the feedback so far!
