Thanks for the explanation.  I didn't even notice the first keymap is combined.

Maybe I don't understand the situation you are thinking of, do you mean, say,
even if ctrl:nocaps/ctrl:swapcaps is set for the second keymap,
"Caps_Lock+Space" wouldn't work as "Control+Space"?

How about showing it more explicitly as combined, like "Keyboard (en(euro), en,
ja)" ?
