Yes I have had that problem myself and really do not have any idea how to fix
it. It seems to happen only on linux but am not sure nor am really familiar
with applets. If you do find the solution please be sure to post it.

OK but that is weird because tn5250j comes with a very extensive key mapping
functionality so not sure what you would have to change that much. Really all
you would have to do is create a custom map and it will automatically be used by
the emulator. If anything and at the worst you could change the Configure
factory to call out to a HTTP:// address and file name to load the properties
from for each user. Very customizable for that and would only need to touch on
part of code and not that much code at all.
Have actually thought about implementing something like that myself in the
emulator. Hell if you do get it working I would be glad to put it in the
emulator.

No problems at all. Very clear understandable writing. You have no reason
whatsoever to not feel confident with it.
