I'm using the german variant neo2 on a regular basis. To enable others to use my computers the layout can be switched to regular german layout.
My experience is as yours but on a much broader basis. KDE, Gnome, XFCE and Awesome had this behaviour and it goes so far that even shortcuts as 'CTRL+C' in terminals were tied to a specific key and did not change when changing layout. That said, I think that it might be helpful to look how this kind of problem is solved in other DEs. sincerely, Max Görner PGP: https://wwwpub.zih.tu-dresden.de/~maxgoern/2FE6023F.asc
