There's a workaround: save and restore the settings automatically via
pm-utils. I wrote the attached /etc/pm/sleep.d/40xkb-save-restore script
(I use XKB instead of the obsolete xmodmap solution, but this script
might also work if you have changed the settings with xmodmap, I have
not tried). The following command is needed in ~/.xsession
xhost +si:localuser:root
since the script is run by root, and root doesn't have the user's
xauth information (for MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1) in his environment.
Most often this works perfectly. This solution is not even affected by
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=661295
However the settings are not always restored:
