 Why would I go to an internet cafe?

  Why would I use a machine belonging to others?  In the infrequent
case where I log into a multiuser system, I use ssh and tunnel the
X11 protocol back to my desktop/laptop.

? And what about when someone uses your machine, and overrides all

  Why would someone use my machine?  Even if they did, they'd log
into the system as themselves, not me, so the keyboard configuration
would be up to them.   '.xsession' is run when you log in.

  Unix/Linux systems were designed from day one as multiuser systems,
unlike the mess from redmond.

Total nonsense.  I've been using the above .xsession file since 1989,
on both unix systems and linux systems from pretty much
every major vendor and haven't had to touch the keyboard configuration
stuff once in the last 28 years.
