Could be done, but why should people with keyboard like mine
type command
loqdkey fr)lqtin&:,qp (keys needed to write loadkey fr-latin1.map
with french keyboard and actual kernel defkeymap)
before beeing able to have correct keyboard ?
And do you find easy to enter your password in sulogin without
knowing where are keys you need ?

It's so simple to integrate it inside kernel instead of qwerty
defkeymap
