<pre>hmm, I'm going to say "no" here, mostly because the use-case we were aiming for
with this property are devices that are more restricted than some programmable
keyboard and where the layout is truly fixed and applying *any* layout is just
wrong.
In your case here that's not quite the case, it's rather that users program the
keyboard to do something else but can that be expected of *all* users?
Note that I'm speaking for the general case here, you can override things
locally and hope for the desktop environments to do the right thing :)
after all, GNOME won't care *why* a keyboard has the fixed layout tag set.</pre>
