yes you have described the issue well.

there's no good reason why a keyboard couldn't be treated as a generic input device and routed anywhere - but the OS sees a keyboard and makes a load of assumptions.

Midi devices OTOH are only really understood by music programs so the OS doesn't interfere so much.

What I'm wondering is if anyone has written linux software to route multiple keyboards to different apps or otherwise deal with them them separately.
