By the way, is this necessarily true if it emulated a USB keyboard?

I'm wondering if USB keyboards can report what symbols are on each
keycap, and if some guests can use that information automatically, so
even when hardware keycodes are wrong, they might still map host key
symbols to guest key symbols correctly.

I don't know much about USB keyboards, just that they can report a
large block of information about themselves, and wondered if this
might be possible.
