OK, thanks a lot Denis for this pretty detailed explanation of the
problem.
So, this bug should finally be assigned to console-data with the
request for creating Unicode keymaps for layouts which don't have
one (Recai mentions Turkish for instance)?
What about kbd? You mentioned me in another mail this supposedly more
recent system for handling keyboard layouts....
Should we start to build a fr-latin0u keyboard, german people a
Unicode german keyboard layout and so on?
Or could a switch to another keyboard handling system help?
