Actually, I use an en_US.UTF-8 locale (easier to copy and paste messages coming from applications to this list :) But I think I've made some progress: according to the NEWS in gnome-control-center package, the "login" button is not available if localed is not running, so I'm more and more persuaded that this part needs a full systemd (or to extract localed from systemd sources). Also it looks like gdm might be using localed (and hence /etc/X11/xorg.d/00-keyboard.conf, as suggested by Ken) for setting the keyboard properties. But since localed is not running, it uses defaults. Note that there is a dconf database /usr/share/gdm/greeter-dconf-defaults, which is compiled at build time. We could also try to alter the defaults when building the gdm package... More to come?
