right now e doesn't do much at all when it comes to key maps etc. frankly -
i've never played with it - as my keyboards dont tend to change what keys do
what during the day :) i have experience with japanese input - but not
russian/bulgarian/etc. etc. so i don't really know where to start here - so for
now - this is a "please send patches and explain to us whats going on" thing :)
(how do you know what keymap to use/change to - does the app hint this? is it a
wm configuration thing. how to actually change keymaps with x calls etc. etc.)

enlightenment_remote - use it, write a script to execute it to set up your
options. it can also be used to query and extract your options. :)

this is unfortunately not an e issue - it's x as it handles mapping of where
the mouse will cross between screens :(
