What happened to me couple of times is that I use by default "us" keyboard, but every now and then I would send an email in Cyrillic and I would forget to switch back to "us" mapping. Then screen saver would turn on and I would try to log in. Unfortunately, my! keyboard mapping is in Cyrillic at that moment and password has to be typed in "us" mapping. In FC4 and FC3 I would just hit my magic keyboard combination and I would go back to "us" mapping. But this is not an option anymore in keyboard settings. It is a bit annoying to get locked out of the system when screen saver turns on.

Well, this is a side-effect of brokenness in libxclavier. It is supposedly fixed upstream,so we should see non-useless keyboard options, including those needed to switch between layouts, in the final gnome release.
