It *also* needs to use the same keyboard layout that's configured in GNOME. (I'm not sure if it currently does or not, but I suspect not.)
This is...complicated, and will remain so until someone finally gets around to making console input less sucky and less completely different from graphical input.
At present, I think, it will sort of happen most of the time: the problems are cases where there just is no equivalent console layout for the X keyboard layout, and I believe when the layout is changed, before the initramfs is rebuilt (because I think we're using the initramfs at that point, and the console keyboard layout config is saved into the initramfs each time it's built).
