I was not talking only about the latched/locked key status. According to
[0] which summarizes XKB capabilities, it also introduced several other
things which may lead keys being misinterpreted. I know it's only in few
cases though... I just think that instead of pushing a hack into
util/keysyms, we should rather wait for XKB2 and XI2, which should be
pushed "soon", no?
Cheers,
