 I'm using up-to-date kde and xkeyboard-config from archlinux repos and
 encountered a strange behavior.
 when loading neo via 'setxkbmap de neo' it breaks a whole lot of key
 combinations (i.e. alt-tab, alt-f2, ctrl-esc).
 after editing /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de and changing level 1 binding
 of numlock to NoSymbol, everything works again.
 So, why on earth is numlock defined as Tab?
 (same problem also with xmodmap from this website)
