No. The effect was the same as when lv3:rwin_switch option was enable
and combining keys with right Command.

When defining symbol, we usualy define 4 symbols per key. Which
normally are for event <key>, <Shift>+<key>, <Modifier>+<key> and
<Shift>+<Modifier>+<key>

What is that modifier ? Mod1 ? Mod2 ? ... Mod5 ? Am i completely wrong ?

according to symbols/apple, some laptop broke the keymap and need
Mode_switch is this now the case for all new Mac (including iMac G3) ?

Really, i don't know, and an xkb guru is very welcome.
