@Alexey: Regarding your point (2), if I do a well enough job and release
an update to the PPA immediately after Ubuntu upstream releases an X
update, then users will only have to install 1 update, or at worst
they'd have 1 X update that requires them to logout and another X update
a day later that again requires a log out.

Regarding point (1) - Ubuntu's X11 distribution carries a lot of out of
stream patches (in 10.04 I count more then 50 additional patches) that
are either in process of being accepted upstream to x.org or
intermediate fixed waiting for another fix from upstream or even patches
that have no chance of being accepted upstream - and Ubuntu still caries
them and make sure they are up to date until they have a better solution
from X.org.

To get Ilya's patch into Ubuntu proper, it requires simply the
intervention of Ubuntu's "X-SWAT" team (
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat ) and that most likely will not
require a rewrite of XKB ;-) but I don't see any of these people list on
this bug report, and I'm not sure what is the procedure for addressing
the Ubuntu X team directly.
