Xscreensaver and keyboard layout

I constantly run into a small but annoying problem. It seems 
xscreensaver inherits keyboard layout from the currently focused window. 
If i switch layout to e.g. Russian, (so that window's "E" icon changes 
to a "heart" icon), then xscreensaver starts and locks the screen, then 
i try typing my password, the password gets typed in Cyrillic letters. I 
have to switch keyboard layout with a shortcut to fix this.

My keyboard layouts and the shortcut to switch them are defined in 
XF86Config file through Xkb. Windowmaker version is 0.91.0.

I'm not sure this is a Windowmaker problem, but in case it is, could 
something be done about it?

Thanks!
