Hi, thank you very much.

Yes, I would agree.  The Baybayin script is alphasyllabry so it is
always CV-CV, then other vowels are represented by use of a diacritical
mark resulting to just 18 base "glyphs" only.

Initially I did not include "VoidSymbols" but I noticed that if it is
left empty, the system checks the next "upper" keyboard in the list and
producing the character there first.

1: Latin = Key1234 produces "A"
2: Baybayin = Key1234 is empty

If pressing Key1234 in Baybayin will produce the letter "A" from the
Latin layout.  I opted instead to hardcode "VoidSymbols" to avoid it.
>From what I understand, it was intentional?

Anyway, I guess that's for another thread / ticket.  Thank you again!

One question. How would you estimate the number of users for colemak
variants? I would be inclined to move them to "extras" section
(base.extras.xml.in)
