FeatureRequest(2.2) - .xkm substitution

Dear developers,

Here is probably a minor request related to TS-O-Matic: it would be fine  
to gain a possibility to upload an arbitrary [my_national].xkm before  
generating a thinstation image. The justification is: they have permanent  
problems toggling keymaps under X-client. The workaround is "xkbcomp -xkm  
$DISPLAY" and substituting the resulting .xkm file instead of original  
ru.xkm before the compilation.

Sorry for waisting your time if I am wrong in smth.
Unhappily I haven't find another workaround.

Sincerely,
Michael

If the X keymap for Russian language is broken, it should be addressed
for the plain TS release too - not just by a (IMHO) ugly hack to
TS-O-Matic. Could you please make a detailed report and post it on
developer - the more details the better. I can garantee you that none!
of us regulars have the slightest idea what a Russian key map should
be like :-)

Thanks for your time on the report.
