> Rhetorical questions: what if you connect two keyboards to your system

The keyboard itself doesn't have a layout defined. So, it doesn't actually
matter. If you had a keyboard which allows direct insertion of
strong-directionality characters of different directions at the same time, that
would be a challenge. But it would also be a challenge to the DE.

Already happens now. With Hebrew (and probably Arabic,  not sure) keyboard
layout, pressing Shift + character key typically produces a capitalized version
of the Latin letter corresponding to that key. This is fine (i.e. users accept
the MSO similar caret behavior), because when such typing happens, the user
knows that they are typing something that's out-of-the-ordinary in the current
keyboard layout.
