Re: An evdev feature proposal; shift/space dual role key

Thanks, Peter Hutterer, for giving an exact, concise summary, which I should have given. I didn't know xkb could be changed, or more correcly, xkb2 is coming, or considered as coming (but not shipped yet). If my proposal can go into xkb2, then I'd be more than happy. Until that, I'm going to sell
