Keyboard layouts are such a pet peeve of mine on so many layers. Using custom keyboards and/or layouts is a pain because there is no standard way of defining layout and furthermore most systems do not support arbitrary layers/modifiers/layouts which are critical for reduced key count keyboards. The standard national layouts often being poor fit for technical use only makes the situation more annoying. |

Definitely!
And the absolute biggest pain with physical keyboard layouts is that if you use anything not standard then you're sorry out of luck when you buy a laptop (until your carry your external keyboard with you in addition to your laptop).
Even buying a common laptop with a US ANSI physical layout (wide enter key, not tall) is not trivial in Europe. It's doable but it requires some research/planning.
