Keyboard mapping

Another topic is keyboard mapping. We have one set of maps in the
Linux kernel and another in  the Xgl server.  What's the best way to
deal with this?

Various ideas:
1) ignore the kernel, do it all in Xgl
2) use the kernel for everything
3) read the kernel map into Xgl

I'd like to see some sort of a unified solution.

Another issue is multiple keyboards. It's not clear to me if the
kernel supports multiple simultaneous keymaps.

Is this relevant to the EGL work?
