xmodmap was deprecated in favour of xkb, since there was a need to be 
able to identify the keyboard layout and set it - even for multiple 
keyboards attached.

X introduced a udev depenancy, to be able to identify the layout as 
provided/made possible with xkb, all other things (except my oldie 
serial mouse) it can find out itself without the need of udev.

Just a wild guess and extrapolation, but this smells multiseat,
without it x wouldn't need udev.
