Bug Description
Hi,
In some locales, it is common to have more than one keyboard layout set, one to enter the native language, and one for latin characters. In the unity desktop, there's an indicator that shows the current layout, and allows switching layouts. I think that unity-greeter should show that indicator as well. Sometimes users have the wrong keyboard layout while typing passwords, and have no indication that they're not typing their password correctly.
The keyboard indicator is shown by gnome-settings-
