Localized short cuts in Anaconda?

[Jamil Ahmed]

Hello,

I am working for Bangla/Bengali l10n.
Thing is, we are  keeping all short cuts (_) in Bengali
But Bengali keyboard is not available in the keyboard selection area.

What should we do now?

X.org has 2 Bengali keyboard layouts - Inscript and Probhat

Question0:
Should we file to bugzilla to include Bengali keyboard in Anaconda and
system-config-keyboard ?

Question1:
If Bengali keyboard is given after filing into bugzilla, can we use English
keyboard again while giving username/password/root password ?

Question2:
Or should we change all shortcuts to English, like Japanese and Chinese l10n
used?

Thanks,
`Jamil

File against system-config-keyboard.  Anaconda uses the same backend
code here so will get it when it's added

You probably want to have all shortcuts be in English.  With all of the
layouts which don't contain normal ASCII characters, the default layout
is set to be us and you then use the input modifier to switch to your
layout (see how, eg, Russian is done).  This is basically required as
otherwise, you can't type in usernames/passwords without special cased
knowledge.

Thanks for the information and the bug submission too! :-)

btw, can anybody check if it is included in FC3 T2? or it will come with FC3 
T3 ?
It will be a great help.
