I've run into a few problems regarding detecting keyboard input via the KeyPressed event.
- On the international English keyboard layout, that uses AltGr (the right Alt key) to input non-English characters (such as 'ä', 'å', etc), the right Alt key is detected as sf::Keyboard::Unknown rather than sf::Keyboard::RAlt. However, this works fine on the standard US layout.
- The numpad number keys do not work regardless of the keyboard layout, whether num lock is enabled or not. They all return sf::Keyboard::Unknown.
- Switching between keyboard layouts while the game is open does not work, and trying to do so produces the following output (only once):

Report this to the SFML maintainers if possible
- On layouts that use scripts other than Latin (such as Greek, Ukrainian, etc) any letter keys return sf::Keyboard::Unknown, while in my opinion they should return the keys corresponding to the US layout. For example pressing the 'ц' key on the Ukrainian layout should return sf::Keyboard::W, because the 'ц' key is located at the same key as the US 'w'.
I'm using Linux, Xubuntu 14.04, with IBus for multilingual input.
