Comment 5 for bug 1827501

"During the installation, it uses the keyboard layout, which you have selected. (Unless there is another bug.)" - with ubuntu mate there does seem to be an issue because even if i select a non-qwerty layout the password that gets typed in the set up page in asteriks is for some reason, in QWERTY, and there is no way of knowing this (until after installation and trying different combinations at boot). Therefore I suggest the ability to show the password entered, during set-up, should one wish, so they can see what has been typed.

with lubuntu, there does not seem to be an issue here, however the ability to see the password would clear confusion. (someone may come accross this problem in another variant of ubuntu and assume lubuntu is the same)

And yes, showing the keyboard layout during the de-encryption boot page would be helpful - or at least a NOTICE during set up, that the keyboard layout for unencryption, after installation, will be qwerty - this is something in the domain of lubuntu.
