Given the current situation, could we not simply drop to the at keyboards on all non-powerpc situations ? That is go for at, for all non-apple usb keyboards ? We still miss the non-apple branded apple usb keyboards this way, but there is not much we can do about this except having a list of all such ids. Alternatively, we could simply propose both the at and the mac-usb keyboards and let the user chose.
