Bug Description
My Ubuntu has two users, me and my sister. She uses the German QUERTZ keyboard layout, while I prefer the German NEO 2.0 layout. (or call it XVLCWK^^).
LightDM allows each of us to use the preferred layout for login (layout is instantly switched like the background image), when I enable the screen keyboard, the correct layout is used. This is great, as any realistic use case is already covered :-)
However, when I now switch between the login fields, the screen keyboard does not adapt to the changing Layout. To make this clear:
Ubuntu boots:
Login prompt, sister is highlighted, quertz ist layout, shark is background image
enable screen keyboard:
a quertz keyboard is shown
press down key:
I am highlighted, Neo is layout, kiwi is background image, but screen keyboard still remains on quertz layout.
