From my personal experience: A few years ago, installing a Dvorak keyboard (which is what I use every day for typing) didn't remap the control keys, so that Ctrl-C was still on the bottom row of the left hand, and so on. For me, it was really terrible.

It may not be the same for everybody, but my experience suggests that it may be similar for some others, and that therefore such a mapping should only be voluntary, not default.
