Good point.

If we add a 'keyboard' distro feature, the issue would indeed be solved. I'll try to see if I can find some time to make such a suggestion, including adding keyboard to the default distro features, to try to reduce problems for existing users. (Altough, it might take a while, as I've just been put o other assignments, reducing my time to work on oe).

Cheers,
