Despite being Danish I haven't really ever looked into the issue of
localizing keyboard shortcuts.
I know a lot of people who aren't developers use the US layout all the
time but my touch typing has never been good and, besides I grew up with
EN UK…
I did notice though that Apple is apparently trying to solve the
problem described above in macOS 12. To learn more, a starting point
could be the links/quotes in this blog post.
In short, a shortcut like ⌥⌘[ will be mapped to something using
the same physical keys as on the US keyboard. This does appear to
happen if I switch to a Danish keyboard layout.
This is just for your information, I haven't really developed an
opinion on whether it's good or bad :)
Thanks very much for the link, but it sounds awful! Anyway, I'm holding
of from ≥ 12 until I'm sure Apple has fixed most of the bugs and
hasn't crippled the OS by turning it into IOS for big screens! ;-)
Seeing as MM has bindings for **nearly** every command I can see this is
a problem. AFAIK it's really only [] and {} that are off limits for most
mappings because they have to be composed. French mappings have their
very own weirdness not related to an alphabet with more than 26
characters…
