>> The XKB issue is 50% fixed.  I'm glad that your use case is working, but other users should not panic if they're still having some problems.  I believe the remaining issue should be restricted to some keys repeating that shouldn't and others that don't repeat that should.  This is because the "should we repeat" metadata is being inherited from an incorrect keymap and not getting clobbered correctly anymore.
