Trying to work on my computer has become really hard since the
following characters are not available on my old German 102-keys AT
keyboard: {}|~ and the brackets, which I can't c&p with my mouse right
now because I don't find them. :-(

If there is no well-working way to detect the type of keyboard (which
I guess is as seldomly available as the monitor's correct DPI), I
suggest using the old behaviour as default. :-(
