Title:
  Add modified german keyboard layout for programming to reduce RSI

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm a software developer writing quite a lot of code.

  The way the german keybooard is layed out, some essential keys like
  brackets and backslash are very awkward to type (right hand holding
  Alt-GR in bottom row and pressing the key right of the 0-key in top
  row to get a backslash).

  After years of doing this, i started to suffer from RSI (repetitive
  strain injury).

  I'm attaching a patch for an additional keyboard layout that puts all
  those hard to reach one-handed brackets, braces and backslash on the
  Umlaut keys. The Umlauts are still available in their normal place
  through Alt-GR for occasional use, but i  mostly use Scroll-Lock to
  switch to an unmodified no-deadkeys layout when typing german text.

  I have been using this layout now for 3 years, and it has greatly
  reduced suffering, while still enabling me to do my job.
