  I plan to remove the lines marked with minus, because we now have kbdmux.
 
 Do these entries have negative impact on systems using kbdmux(4)?
 Will their lack have impact on systems not using kbdmux(4)? I typically
 remove or at least disable the latter on machines without atkbd(4) etc.
 hardware and thus ukbd(4) is the only keyboard driver ever used there.
 

Hi,

I suspect a system without kbdmux will still need these. However, these lines 
are not correct with regard to multiple USB keyboards.

Yes, but do these lines have ill effects for configurations with kbdmux(4)
and multiple keyboards? If not then I'd strongly suggest to keep them for
the sake of making configurations without kbdmux(4) work out of the box.
If yes, I'd at least keep them in a commented out form and add a mark
saying that these are required without kbdmux(4).

.. as long as we can attach/detach keyboards without there actually
_being_ a physical console keyboard at boot, sure.
