GNOME is probably not interested in a complete "keyboard configurator" or a UI for everything that XKB can do. We try to provide functionality, ideally functionality that people need. As I understand it, we just want to make the following use cases possible: - Murray has a german keyboard. He uses an english keyboard layout with it. He wants to type an o with an umlaut in gedit. He needs to switch to a german keyboard layout so that pressing the o-with-an-umlaut key gives him an o-with-an-umlaut. Then we needs to switch back to an english keyboard layout. - Bob spends half his time writing arabic and half the time writing english. His keyboard has both sets of symbols on the keys [1], but he needs to change keyboard layouts to actually type those characters. I could be wrong about this. If so, it needs to be made clear what we want to achieve. [1] I've seen this for Thai too. Murray Cumming murrayc usa net www.murrayc.com -- Sergey
