If I install Ubuntu in Swedish, I expect the installer to propose the basic se keyboard layout, which it also did previously. So I'm a bit surprised to hear that you would like it to suggest us+intl in the case of a Dutch installation; I would have thought you'd prefer it to pick the basic nl keyboard layout.

Anyway, the pre-selection of keyboard layout seems to be broken. Whichever language you pick, the basic English (US) layout is suggested.

Previously the window for setting keyboard layout showed up after you had selected the time zone, but is now the first window you see when clicking the install button. It may have something to do with it, or not.

"Try Ubuntu" is broken in this respect as well - I don't want the English (US) layout when trying in Swedish!

I subscribed Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre and Jean-Baptiste Lallement, who both have made changes to ubiquity lately. Also raised the importance to "High" - I think this is an important issue; bad first impression for most non-US users.
