Title:
Remove nova default keymap option for qemu-kvm (deprecated)
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):

Bug description:
Hi,
Nowdays, qemu-kvm default keymap option -k en-us, or any keymap option
is deprecated.
In OpenStack it renders the web console access to vm unsuable even
with the proper keymap in nova.conf. For exapmle the use of 'Alt-Gr +
key' combination in French, Belgium, spanish, or alike keyboard is not
working, this can be problematic for hard passwords.
Using the linked patch and removing/commenting the keymap options in
nova.conf, makes everything working again (depending on the NoVnc
version which might be patched also on previous ones).
So maybe by default the nova.conf should now comment/remove this
option and we need to remove the default option in the nova code.
Regards,
Pierre-André
