Thanks for your comments Mișu.   Here are my thoughts with regards to
the points you raised.

1.   I personally have a hard time reconciling the idea that in order to
get Linux fixed, we have to wait for Windows Vista to gain significant
market share.   I might find this easier to understand if there weren't
any standard to follow, but there is.  I don't use Windows because
things such as diacritics are broken, now if Linux just replicates those
issues, then I'm not sure why I should use Linux.  Admittedly this isn't
related to freedesktop.org, but Ubuntu's bug #1 has the goal of
decreasing Windows market.   Seems silly to me to have a goal of
decreasing Windows market share whilst at the same time waiting for an
increase in market share in order to fix other bugs.

2.  See Mihai Captă's comments.  I agree entirely.

Forgetting the issue of what should be the default layout, can we at
least agree that we need to have the option available in Ubuntu UI that
allows users to select the Romanian keyboard layouts that use the
correct diacritics?  Both Vista and Mac OS X allow me that luxury.
