When will atkbd and syscons drivers support multibyte character encoding?
I want exactly one key to produce a sequence of bytes (one unicode character),
and a sequence of bytes (one unicode character) to be mapped to one symbol
on a screen.

E. g., Red Hat linux console driver has such usefull possibilities
for many years. 
They are usefull not for unicode only, but for escape 
sequences generated by Alt+<any key> also.
