I had the same problem when working on the Dutch keyboard layout (see #286581). In the end I decided to define a clean, full keyboard layout without the inclusion of latin. Reasons why loading the latin default can be considered a problem: - a lot of the characters are not available in the standard charset; - keeping the latin defaults leads to some characters being defined for more than one key; - people don't expect keys that are undefined to generate "random" characters; - there is little or no logic in which key combination generates which character, making them difficult to remember. My feeling while testing the combination of latin default together with dutch specific overrides was that the result was very messy.
