I might be retarded, but I don't waste my life 'customizing' my
fucking keyboard layout, I use the *standard* layout that works well
for the task it is designed for: input text and code.
Asking for apps to be changed because you use a braindead keyboard
layout is just crazy.

That surf uses gtk is a disgrace, to depend on GTK providing sane
keybindings is a really bad idea.

I did it for Chrome already:
http://repo.cat-v.org/burning_chrome/hosaka/ it is fast, but obviously
still sucks, because the right solution is for the app to implement
the proper and sane shortcuts.
