Yepp, working on the fix.

Well, that's true but it's available - I've tried to mimic gdm's behavior here: by
pressing alt+shift you can change layout.

Fixed in git.

Could you point me particular glade file with this widget?
I was unable to find it. Also I do not see scrollable widget in glade itself which is
weird. Maybe you can send me dummy glade file with this scrollable list widget and
store so I can try to integrate it?

Ok, I'll take a look.

I don't understand it at all. After I've chosen 'de' layout I still can switch back
and forth with alt+shift to\from 'us' layout. Just like in gdm.

Should be fixed in git. Although I'm not sure about margins - if they are not wide
enough you can push adjusted glade file into git.
