Maybe yes, but it is still 'not in the workflow' of the installer. Would it be possible to set the latin keyboard automatically in the input fields where it must be used (and probably English (US) which is standard)? That would make things straightforward. If that is hard, maybe use two windows, one with the local keyboard, that might be non-latin, and one with English (US) for input of computer name, user name and password.

Or allow non-ascii characters generated by non-latin keyboards. But that must also work when logging into virtual consoles (via ctrl+alt+F2 etc). Otherwise it is better to force latin characters at least for user name and password.
