No. It changes the X server's keyboard layout for a specific device [1],
which kind of makes sense, because it would be confusing for one device
(i.e. keyboard) to have two maps at the same time.

The notion of user doesn't play a direct role here, I think.

I think I have an idea of what you mean, but to cut short any guessing:
can you describe a scenario around what you want?

Cheers
