I do not believe you can do it for all input from the KB because
the KB is somewhat virtualized under , whereas keyboard of /dev/tty is
still
under the control of the keymaps, which is modifiable via loadkeys.
I already posted another reply with .Xdefaults translations for X
managed terminals.
As I said in another reply, the .xsession method is working for
everything I've tried except Chrome. I also note that alternate consoles
don't seem to pay attention to the Insert key at Shell level so that's a
non-issue (though they do within Vi).
