Calling that a fix is obviously related to your statement in bug #803858 about not providing a language chooser. It was unexpected news to me.

Btw, are you talking about Ubuntu or upstream or both? Personally I'd prefer that we keep providing the opportunity to set the display language at login, at least in Ubuntu.

If I understand it correctly, the code for a language widget is still there, and the (.dmrc based) Natty model for how a language chooser may play together with language-selector can be applied to LightDM as well.

I fully understand that you are loaded with various aspects of LightDM, and I offer to help fix this in a similar way as it works in Natty with GDM. If somebody re-activates the LightDM language chooser (as is), I'll try to take it from there.
