Currently the user has no way of knowing which of the active modifiers
have been used in the translation of a keycode to its keysyms. The use
case is described in the GTK docs: say there's a menu accelerator
activated by "<Alt>+". Some layouts have "+" shifted, and some have it
on the first level. So in keymaps where "+" is shifted, the Shift
modifier is consumed and must be ignored when the user is testing
for "<Alt>+". Otherwise, we may get "<Alt><Shift>+" and the accelerator
should not actually fire.
For this we also use the preserve[] information in the key types, which
can forces us to report modifiers as unconsumed even if they were used
in the translation. Until now we didn't do anything with this
information.
The API tries to match its surronding. It's not very efficient but this
can be fixed.

Add new public API to provide the library users with some options to
control and customize the logging output from the library. It is based
upon the skeleton from the libabc demo libray:
https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kay/libabc.git
which is public domain and works pretty well.
This requires passing in the context object in every logging call, and
thus the conversion is done file by file. We also remove the global
warningLevel variable in favor of a verbosity level in the context,
which can be set by the user and is silent by default.
One issue is the ACTION calls, which, while nice, do not play very well
with line- and priority-based logging, and would require some
line continuation handling or keeping state or some other compromise. So
instead remove these and just inline them with their respective
warning/error. So instead of:
ERROR("Memory allocation failed\n")
ACTION("Removing all files on hardisk\n")
its something like that:
log_err("Memory allocation failed; Removing all files on harddisk\n")

The include/ dir is somewhat redundant and makes it just a bit harder to
handle the -I directives from out side of automake; without it the
default $(top_buildir) just works.
Here's also some further justifications I found:
