On the system with Gnome & xkb, use any layout with non-latin
       additional group of symbols (for instance, Russian). There's
       an example of InputDevice section in XFree86 config file:
            Section "InputDevice"
               Identifier "Keyboard0"
               Driver "keyboard"
               Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
               Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
               Option "XkbLayout" "us,ru"
               Option "XkbOptions" "grp:shift_toggle"
            EndSection

    The same layout, at least in theory, may be created at runtime
    by calling
       setxkbmap -layout "us,ru" -option "grp:shift_toggle" -rules xfree86 -model pc105
    Switch between groups by pressing left then right Shift.
    
    Compile and run a simplest test:
    
    import java.awt.*;
    public class AcTest {
        static Frame frame = null;
        static TextField tf = null;
        public static void main( String args [] ) {
            frame = new Frame("Input test");
            tf = new TextField();
            frame.add( tf);
            frame.setSize(200,80);
            frame.setLocation(300,300);
            frame.setVisible( true );
        }
    }
    
    Switch to Russian, select text field and type 'q':
    there must be 0x0439 character added but will be no input at all.
    Also, no events generated.
