I'd suggest "translating" the password between the default layout and all layouts selected in anaconda. Just recently, I found that the initramfs honored my anaconda key layout, but the rescue initramfs did not. I'd expect that in the common case, this would eat one extra luks slot, and could save a lot of head ache without meaningfully reducing security.

V/r,
