The reason we explicitly chose to have a keysym (really, 'Unicode codepoint') event, is to support characters which don't appear in any keymap. As a trivial example, emoji keyboards will want to send symbols which appear in no sane keymap. Similarly, CJK input methods may offer streams of characters pre-composed from component runs; it is not practical to insert the entire CJK unicode space into a keymap.
