I've created one that should do the trick for most people. It is us.iso.kbd except: ESCAPE and `~ are swapped CTRL and CAPS LOCK are swapped BACKSPACE and DELETE are swapped I'm a little biased on the last one because I use Emacs so much, but could easily kill it. I'd like to include it in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps as an alternative keymap for people to use. It won't change the defaults, and people using it I'm assuming will know how do have their delete backwards character do the right thing when it is DEL rather than BS. Comments?
