Don't get me started. As someone who lives and works largely in Spanish,
but uses a US keyboard (because typing stuff like '|', '>' or '{' on a
Spanish kb is agony) I live with this on a daily basis.

And as someone who has a "'" in his surname, I also have to deal with
brain-dead web forms written in Visual Basic that don't properly
validate their input. It's an anti-Irish conspiracy I tell you :-)

But that's another story.
