Traditional Chinese would have got a US layout anyway because there's no
separate keyboard layout defined for zh_TW (and note that the 'cn'
layout is actually just the same as 'us' anyway, so for now the
difference is purely cosmetic).  "EE. UU." is Spanish for USA.

You're right that there is a problem here, though.  What's happening is
that keyboard-configuration/layoutcode (and presumably keyboard-
configuration/variantcode if the first stage did anything that required
a variant) has its value copied over from the first stage, so that the
second stage thinks it already has a default answer to that question.
Fixing this is tricky because there are a lot of conflicting
requirements, some of which affect use cases other than OEM Services: we
need to copy the keyboard-configuration questions so that future
upgrades of keyboard-configuration don't ask questions which have
already been answered at installation time; we need to preserve the
ability of OEMs to preseed the keyboard page if they're shipping
machines with a known keyboard layout; and we need to make your case
work.

I think a reasonable answer to this would be to simply not copy k-c
questions from the first stage in OEM mode.  This seems to do the trick,
and would still allow for OEMs to explicitly preseed it after the first
stage has finished.  I've missed the beta-2 boat now, but I'll do this
for final release.
