Sorry for the very slow reply, been very busy and haven't been checking
my bug mail.

The keyboard layout order is determined by Calamares, or whatever it's
using to set the keyboard layouts. The first layout in that order is the
default, and the user has to explicitly hit a key combo to change it, so
it's most likely that the first one is correct.

Arguably *if* the user changes their keyboard layout with a key combo,
the chosen keyboard layout should be used. Doing that will require
significantly more complicated code however since the only way to get
the "real" current keyboard layout to my awareness is to use some C
code. This would fix the issue Skia hit.

Also, all of the above will break with Wayland. Hmm...
