I finally had some time to look at this issue, for which I have a 
fix[1], but I'd rather check with upstream how to proceed here.

It turns out serde_yaml now has specific expectations for handling 
enums, which require patching the keyboard layouts quite extensively; 
this also affects custom user-defined layout files, which would likely 
cause *some* breakages among squeekboard users.

Cheers,
Arnaud
