Much of the need for the .Xkeymap file has been subsumed by the new
keyboard stuff (i.e. interchanging keys is now easy to do on a per
server basis, though we need some utilities to do it...).  The ability
to bind strings to keys, however, did not get reimplemented, as the
keyboard stuff changed twice between May 1 and Sept. 15.  There is
a good chance it will be reimplemented for the next release.

Work toward utilities to support all the new keyboard hackery possible
would be appreciated...  Any volunteers?
