Yes. I feel that the current patch in unacceptable and very confusing (you
try unlocking your screen: it fails because it's changed keyboard layout
for you without tell you -- you try unlocking again -- this time it
magically works because it's changed the keyboard layout back). It's going
to be bad enough on my UK keyboard which is similar but has key
differences to US keyboard, let alone others.

Please either revert or fix.
