well, all we actually need is the loadkeys binary and the keymaps from console-data after all ... and a sane subprocess invocation in python to call loadkeys with the right keymap file.
this should not be rocket science but sadly the overhead that console-setup and keyboard-configuration add on top (for bringing xorg in sync with the console etc etc) kind of makes it such which is why i'd like us to go with something way smaller here.
