It cannot be set up by users without root privileges and does nothing that the stock X won't do. That makes it inelegant, over-engineered and therefore unnecessary. :) ~/.xmodmap with the contents "keycode 54 = z". ~/.xsessionrc with the contents "xmodmap .xmodmap". Two files; two lines; total control.
