Not all of them get remapped when you switch to hebrew, resulting in more than one pair of braces/brackets.

I wrote my answer after looking carefully at the map files and testing all Hebrew layout variants with Dvorak English keymap as a first loaded one. Why? -- Sincerely Yours, Michael Vasiliev ...
