TODO:
-----
* Is there a way to use clearmods=LevelFive on all the Extend mappings by default? Or just be more careful with each RedirectKey(). Example: Q -> Esc -> Caps.
* Is there a way to clear the LevelFive mod on all the Extend mappings by default? Or must I be more careful with each RedirectKey()?
- Example: `Q -> Esc -> Caps` caused people trouble, as Ext+Q would act as Esc+Caps.
- Possibly, finally make a new key type EIGHT_LEVEL_EXTEND with the action clearmods=LevelFive added to state 5-8? No, no actions.
- In xkb/types/level5 under EIGHT_LEVEL_SEMIALPHABETIC I used `preserve[Shift] = Shift;`. We need the opposite here, to discard lvl5.
- See for instance https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.5/doc/input/XKB-Enhancing.html
- "Usually, all modifiers introduced in 'modifiers=<list of modifiers>' list are used for shift level calculation and then discarded."
- Does this mean that LevelFive should've been discarded but isn't? Is it an XKB bug?
* From Daniele at the Cmk Discord: Try out localectl?
- E.g., 'localectl set-x11-keymap us pc105aw-sl cmk_ed_dh lv5:caps_switch_lock,misc:extend' should work to make changes persistent?
* The Curl(DH) model implementation have to go as it may mess w/ QWERTY. Instead, I should use two Extend variants.

* Find out how to change the rules component properly to allow compiling and eventually merging to the main repo?
* Migrate from `~/.bashrc` to `~/.xprofile`? The latter is more appropriate, but which setups source it and which ones don't?
* Could use an <XTND> key code alias defined in keycodes/evdev (alias <XTND> = <CAPS>), instead of the <CAPS> code?
For an EsAlt variant as in EPKL:
* Test this method for using a local dir:
- Copy the `xkb-data_mod/xkb` dir to, say, `/usr/local/bigbag/xkb` and `setenv MYXKB <dir>` (setenv not necessary, just for here)
- `setxkbmap <parameters> -print | xkbcomp -I -I$MYXKB -I/usr/share/X11/xkb - $DISPLAY`
- See https://github.com/DreymaR/BigBagKbdTrixXKB/issues/14
