 The basic problem is that we'd have to either double the size of the
 menu, or add a second menu that let you select the keyboard options.
 Then we'd end up having to describe (somehow) what the options mean!
 Both would be a little unweildy.
 
 The only option currently set is KB_NODEAD which is always set for
 the German keyboard.  Maybe others should have that as well, but
 no one has requested it.
 
 You can always ^Z out of sysinst and run wsconsctl yourself!
