Description Erkan Erol 2021-02-03 13:22:26 UTC 
Description of problem:

While creating a VM, users are allowed to enter password in "cloud-init" step. When they use non-ascii chars in the password, the creation of VM works. However, users  cannot connect to console via web ui or virtctl. WebUI doesn't allow keyboard selection in console window. virtctl cannot verify the password. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose "Customize virtual machine" in web UI while creating a VM. (I used Fedora 31)
2. In the step 4, remove the autogenerated password and use "türkçekarakterlişifre"
3. Continue the wizard and create the VM
4. Observe that you cannot enter the password via web ui since the console tab in web ui assumes your keyboard is english keyboard.
5. Try to connect with "virtctl console" command with the password. Observe that it rejects. 

Actual results: Connection to VM is not possible.


Expected results: The password should not be allowed while creation or it should work. At least, the doc should states that non-ascii passwords don't work.
