Then you change your layout about one time per hour, and you have no idea how you did that, and it takes time to realise what was wrong. So, if it is really the best solution (to use ctrl+shift), please consider that a lot of people don't want to change their layout, and use ctrl+shift+otherkey a lot, and who will have a lot of problem if the use of ctrl+shift is activated by default. -- --- Cyrille Berger ---
