Ah, hmm. I heard of that. Can you explain how precisely that works? Do
you actually use the same keybaord definitions, i.e. have converted them
to console definitions? Or do you just share the same naming namespace?

Presumably the console kbd subsystem is much less powerful than X, so i
wonder how this maps.

Any docs available for this?

Honestly this actually sounds a lot better than the non-sense we are
currently doing. This probably something we should just follow debian
in. (and iirc i saw a feature flying by about this for fedora...)
