Comment #48 on issue 1558 by [email protected]: Ibus 1.5 does not
effect 'use system layout'.
http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1558
Thanks for your reply :).
'nodeadkeys' means I can type various things with just one keypress instead
of two, e.g. '^'. I use some keyboard shortcuts which rely on this to be
true, and for others a more common usecase is probably convenient typing of
emoticons.
Note that the German keyboard layout has dedicated keys for the vowels with
diacritics (aka umlauts) German itself uses, and few Germans regularly type
words which require the use of accents, so dead keys are simply less useful
than no dead keys for many typical German typing habits. Using the
nodeadkeys variant is therefore very common.
Regarding "Use system keyboard layout", I didn't try to re-login after
toggling it. But I assume that KDE actually runs setxkbmap before ibus has
a chance to start, so the above sequence may not be easily achievable for
KDE users, unless they disable KDE's xkb frontend and use other means to
run setxkbmap after ibus startup.
