I'm using Ibus to input my native language (ml_IN). But during my work if the screen get lock while the input method for malayalam is active, im unable to type my password which is in English. There is no option to switch the input language in the Lock screen. So usually i need to restart and all my work gone. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable Ibus or any other input methods other than English
2. Lock Screen
3. Try to login with your password which is in English

Actual Results:  
The character corresponding to the password in the input method get enter in the character field. No option to switch the Input method

Expected Results:  
Have an option to switch the Input method in Login Screen
