Yes, that's correct.  "se" instead of "sv".

Except:

1) xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/layout is a string type,
   not a select;
2) this template defaults to "us", not "sv"
3) So if it says "sv", that's because you put it there.
4) The English template description explicitly calls for an ISO 3166
   *country code*, not an ISO 639 *language code*.
5) There is no Swedish translation for this template.  Perhaps someone
   would be so kind as to update the Swedish template translations?

So, I don't see how this problem is anything but a configuration error
on your part.  Debconf is not doing anything wrong, and the dexconf
program is doing what it's told.
