Regarding the "which shortcut should be used by default for toggling
layouts".

Ubuntu or Gnome should not decide that shortcut worldwide. It depends on
the locale. In Greece, we've been using Alt+Shift since at least the
'80s. Windows recently started offering Win+Space as well, but in
parallel, without cancelling Alt+Shift, and very few people use
Win+Space here.

AFAIK console-setup already has code to provide the correct defaults for
most locales. If, for some locales, there's no sensible default, then
ubiquity should ASK the user, not default to "none". None does not make
sense; of course a Greek user will need to type Greek. Console-setup
already has such a dialog, if ubiquity doesn't want to use a default
shortcut after 18.04.2, it should at least present the layout toggling
switch dialog, NOT default to "none".
