keyboard layout affects where the keys are rather than which (named) key does what then.. (you follow that logic zell?)
so if I put `+ middle click
thats correct for everyone (by default)
?

no, here it's \ + middle click

(still the key below escape, besides 1)

ahh ok. Any other keys have this issue?
'key below escape'. that covers it pretty much?

Yeah but everyone tells you to press `, no one ever describes where on the keyboard it is. ` is at the left side of my enter key here, and it requires me pressing shift in addition.
Besides, I wouldn't be too confused if someone actually moved that key away from under esc on some keyboard layouts too.
That said, it's
` + double left click for points with descriptions and
` + middle click for simple points

edit: scatch that
according to keymap image both ` and \ draw. So as I thought its the named keys not the position of the keys that matters (fits with what zell is saying).
this seem correct?
(On a UK/US keyboard ` is to the key left of 1. The same functionality is mapped to the \ key)

drawinmap is mapped to three different keys by default, iirc.
