I'm not sure what you meant here, but on my keyboard (Apple extended II), the 
help key and the insert key are the same (that is, something like "<INS> = 
Help" makes sense to me)

I do :-). Again I'm not sure I got you right here (excuse my bad english) : my 
Delete key is just under the insert/help key, e.g. :

---------
|  INS |
---------
| DEL |
---------

Just another thought : why bother with the Mode_Switch / Multi-Key ; you could 
get a perfectly working keyboard with the ISO_Level3_Shift (mapped to AltGr, 
for example). That's what I have here because somehow it makes more sense for 
me.
 (The purpose of Mode_switch was to be able to change the alphabet (set of 
symbols) you are using, or am I missing something ?)

Simon
