how is using another naming convention less standard while still using the 
standard itself :) 

Nevertheless either way is OK from my point of view. In the light of the 
efforts for generating a Kurdish layout and the differences between the two 
scripts as well as layouts I thought using "fa" might be more appropriate 
than the use of "ir".

Awaiting suggestions from the XFree86 team.
