I have nothing against that. For keyboard layouts, ideally we'd have a unified configuration between X/console/Wayland/et al (cf. cxkb), so that's why the XKB configuration went in HAL: note that arbitrary input options did not, originally, go in HAL. So I don't know how we should solve that one. Cheers, Daniel
