Gah. I don't know why this seems to keep happening, we had similar bugs
in F12 period. I did test an install in French, but set US keyboard
layout (since that's what keyboard I have), so didn't see this.

Can you please file bugs, if they're not filed already, so we can get
this fixed and documented?
