By myself, I'm German, I'm using an US-keyboard due to these conflicts and to learn how to type ü or ß is VERY easy. In other words if you use an US/GB keyboard instead make the life (on a Mac) much easier.
wow, just wow. :) While you obviously like it that way, I'd say if I have to choose between some minor inconvenience in one or two applications and dealing with a foreign keyboard layout, having to learn shortcuts for common characters of my native language (and having to re-adapt every time I use another computer), I'll choose the inconvenience of sometimes having to use the mouse or remap some shortcut. :)
It might have come over quite harsh, but actually I don't mind much that some shortcuts don't work (such as Ctrl-|). I can remap those which are of use to me. But I was just baffled by the fact that a simple Ctrl-Cmd-Alt-K wouldn't work as intended. :)
