Title:
  Mir should read default keymap from udev properties.

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in Mir:
  New
Status in Ubuntu Terminal App:
  Confirmed
Status in mir package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Mir should maintain default keymaps for all physical keyboards, read
  from the XKBLAYOUT, XKBMODEL, XKBOPTIONS, and XKBVARIANT udev
  properties associated with the keyboard device.

  This will make Mir servers use the system-wide configuration by
  default.

  Original report follows:
  Note: the documentation request is NOT for the on-screen-keyboard, but for 
external keyboards connected through bluetooth;

  I have an external BT keyboard with layout UK QWERTY (see a scan of
  the layout here 1) which works fine with my Ubuntu mobile devices.
  What I in addition want to archive are the Spanish tilded chars like
  áéíóñ¿¡ ...

  In my FreeBSD netbook I do such configuration on the X11 level with
  commands like this which are fired up when the desktop comes up, here
  as an example for the character ñ Ñ:

      # we use the Win-key to add more (esp. Spanish) letters to the keys:
      #
      xmodmap -e "keycode 0x73 =  Mode_switch"
      xmodmap -e "keycode 0x39 =  n N ntilde Ntilde"

  i.e. the useless key "Win" is redefined as a X11-modifier key and
  pressing the keys Win + n together gives just ñ.

  How could I do this within the Ubuntu OTA-10 terminal app or within
  the M10?
