"During the installation, it uses the keyboard layout, which you have
selected. (Unless there is another bug.)" - with ubuntu mate there does
seem to be an issue because even if i select a non-qwerty layout the
password that gets typed in the set up page in asteriks is for some
reason, in QWERTY, and there is no way of knowing this (until after
installation and trying different combinations at boot). Therefore I
suggest the ability to show the password entered, during set-up, should
one wish, so they can see what has been typed.

with lubuntu, there does not seem to be an issue here, however the
ability to see the password would clear confusion. (someone may come
accross this problem in another variant of ubuntu and assume lubuntu is
the same)

And yes, showing the keyboard layout during the de-encryption boot page
would be helpful - or at least a NOTICE during set up, that the keyboard
layout for unencryption, after installation, will be qwerty - this is
something in the domain of lubuntu.
