Bug Description

Some people use multiple keyboard layouts in order to type in multiple languages. Ubuntu allows the user to configure a keyboard shortcut that switches the layout, defaulting to Alt-Shift.
In unity-greeter, as of version 0.2.1, the keyboard shortcut doesn't work. The only way to switch layouts is with the keyboard indicator that was recently added, using the mouse.
I think the keyboard shortcut configured by the user should also work in the greeter, for consistency.
