I agree completely.
It's easy to make new XkbOption that switch on the behaviour of numpad keys
exactly as in MS Windows.

Egbert, I'd like to ask you don't apply the patch from the bugreport.
I am going to make this option (something like "numpad:no_shift" or
"numpad:microsoft") soon.

Any suggestions about an option name are welcome.
