I have another question about UTF-8 and kbd: some keymaps are defined
twice, with Unicode notation and numerical (or litteral) notation, like
mk-utf.map and mk-cp1251.map.  Since Unicode notation is needed to
input non-ASCII characters, all keymaps will sooner or later provide
a -utf variant.  But why is Unicode notation handled in a different
manner by loadkeys?  This distinction could be made depending on
KDGKBMODE ioctl but not on input format so that a single keymap can
be used.
