Description Andrew Kelley 2015-02-11 22:40:01 UTC 
To reproduce:

1. Start an SDL application in Dvorak keyboard layout.
2. Press ctrl+x (in dvorak) and observe that you get a key down event with virtual key SDLK_x
3. Switch the keyboard layout to QWERTY
4. Press ctrl+x (in qwerty) and observe that you get a key down event with virtual key SDLK_q when you expected to get virtual key SDLK_x

Maybe this is related to bug 3050.
