Title:
  with encryption+UEFI, no opportunity to select keymap before entering
  passphrase

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  While investigating bug #1128257, I found that when using the 'install
  ubuntu' option I'm given no opportunity to set the keymap before the
  prompt for my passphrase.  This is a combination of:

   - UEFI boots with grub rather than syslinux, so there's no keymap prompt in the bootloader
   - the keymap question appears to happen too late

  It's problematic to prompt for any text before the user has an
  opportunity to choose their keymap (and not just their language).
