Bug#507131: xinit: Xmodmap not loaded



Looking at old and current upstream xinitrc's (
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xinit/tree/xinitrc.cpp ), the mode maps are loaded interleaved
with resources.

1.  System resources
2.  System modmap
3.  User resources
4.  User modmap

If that order isn't strictly necessary, it might make sense to put the modmap loading in a file such
as /etc/X11/Xsession.d/31x11-common_xmodmap.

And the ordering is considered important, I'd suggest merging it into the existing
30x11-common_resources.  Maybe even rename that to resources_and_modmap.


Either way, I will say that I hope the exclusion of .Xmodmap was purely an oversight that will be
rectified shortly.
