My bad about the Windows sequence. The problem is, this issue is way easier to trigger than that.
So, since the time I posted the last message, I have had to educate 4 people on what is going wrong with their keyboard because the Latin mode is going on and off. I tell them the magic toggle keys and they roll their eyes and rant and rave. These are just people who have happened to ask me (I am not a Windows or GNOME expert). I can imagine the problem is very pervasive and there are a lot of people out there who just can't figure out how to characterize it. The point is that this is WAY too easy to accidentally turn on and the "Latin" icon does not mean much to normal users and they see strange behavior which appears to be a bug. Is there some reason (standardization or otherwise) why this default can't be changed to something that will only be turned on by a deliberate set of keystrokes?
