Kazuhiko Tanaka commented on GUACAMOLE-520:
-------------------------------------------
Zenkaku_Hankaku key is very important for Japanese keyboards and we can do
almost nothing without it. This is a very serious problem. (Imagine a
situation where you cannot use the Shift key. You cannot enter many
characters. This problem is more serious than the Shift key problem. In
Japan, this key is pressed first and is frequently used to switch between Roman
and Japanese input.)

> This is inherently incorrect, as the Japanese keyboard can type far more
> characters than those given here. Even if the missing characters are
> correctly mapped, several of these characters depend on additional,
> Japanese-specific modifier/lock keys which the keymap format does not
> currently define.
