Yes, you can rename the keymap. However, if you would have a different keymap
with the name usa2 some more changes would have to be made.
The name of the keymap is in the keymap itself also, so if you changed the
name of usa2 to dvorak and some other keymap to usa2, there would be some
problem.
Doing a "setmap dvorak" and then a "setmap usa2" would not change the keymap
to the "new" usa2. The solution is of course to change the name contained in
the keymap also, or not having another usa2 keymap.
