Also what about the rest of the Edit menu items like clear and select all? Those are missing too. Not every user knows the key combinations by heart or even if they do they might prefer to use the menu items. With those items missing they are effectively disabled for those users. If we'd like to include mouse centric users we'll need to provide an Edit menu for those items at least. ...

From this patch I should be able to easily extend the idea to also internationalize the layout files. The only problem is that I've already done some work so I'll need to apply this into master and then merge the changes back into my private branch. Just to make sure, did you figure out how to use the powers of git to get that patch into your private branch? Because, I would be amazed if ...

In order to do that I need to add the keymap and layout file names to Keymap's catalog. I'd prefer that the catalog entries were auto-generated from the file names so that we don't have to maintain a separate list. That means building a header file at compile time that contains the names and then including it in the Keymap preflet's Jamfile. ...
