** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
  New Unity Lockscreen has the same problem as the old one from Gnome: the 
chosen keyboard shortcut is not switching keyboard layouts on it, the only way 
is to use mouse.
- Steps to reproduce:
+ 
+ [Test Case]
  1. To make things uncomfortable, switch layout to Russian or any other with 
your favourite shortcut(i am using alt-shift)
  2. Lock the screen with ctrl-alt-l
  3. Try to change layout back to English to enter password
  Expected:
  Layput should change and you should be able to login without touching 
anything but keyboard.
  What's happening:
  Nothing, doesn't react on the keyboard shortcut, you have to change layout 
using indicator on top panel.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 1. There may potentially be missing keyboard shorts.
+ 2. Key grabs may persist after the lockscreen has been released.
+ 3. new code contains dynamic memory allocation, which always introduces 
potential leaks, crashes, or exhaustion
