At the moment I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and I would like to have the ability to have a language chooser on login screen. I tried the suggestion in comment #16, but even after restarting the computer I didn't see any change at login screen.

$ cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf
show-language-selector=true

Personally I see potential in schools for this feature request. Eg. in our (Dutch speaking) school we have language classes for Dutch, French, Spanish and German (and even Chinese). Eg. my class has Dutch, French and English. I think it's interesting to be able to choose the language at login: if a pupil has an English class, he takes 'English' and if he has a French class, he takes 'French'. Microsoft Windows... try to defeat that :-)!
