That's fair.
I used to use xmodmap until X or E (I forget) broke it, and you told me
to switch to xkb, so I did. It worked until 0.23 adn now it stopped
working in 0.24, so I'll do a system level one like you said.

As to why should this be per user?
Each user may have a different locale because they don't speak the same
language. The part where I'm "special" is that I made my own overlay
french locale on top of Qqwerty to type accents quicker than user the
dead key method.

I wrote that in 1992 on sun sparks at school, and have been using it
since then across linux version from 0.99 :)

But yes, you're still right, I must be the only person who went through
the trouble, especially someone using a keyboard mapping different from
their own language, which is a bit more rare already.

Cheers,
Marc
