Ok, so let me to summarize this if I got it right: 1. We will provide possibility for users to have modifier-only shortcuts if they really want it, the question if it's for everything or just for kxkb 2 The default chosen shortcut for layout switching will be "proper" not-a-modifier-only shortcut, but which is easy to press with two fingers on one hand. Current two proposals: Ctrl+Menu and Alt+Shift. First one is very like Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift often used by Win users but have problem of not being present on older keyboards. 3. Alternative to 2 could be still modifier-only Alt+Alt (as used in gnome) as this combination is not used (correct me if I am wrong) in any other shortcut combination so no "accident switching will happen".
