[Joshua]

Package: kbd

Followup-For: Bug #557171

request tag accessability security important

I am restriced to one hand and forced to enable stickykeys everywhere

It's too difficult to switch consoles with three finget hotkey and sometimes impossible.

as emergency action I set suid root on chvt which setting suid on a binary not designed for it is a bad idea
