Most of my mentions of 'Xnest' there should be 'Xvfb'. Xvfb is a lot less disgusting than Xnest, but still doesn't support xkb option setting :(

Yeah, in principle xpra should be able to reconfigure the keyboard using the Xkb API, but... this involves the Xkb API.

Really we need to give Xvfb the same xkb-setting command-line parameters
as Xorg itself. I'll do that next time I go near that code (my existing
just-change-the-global-defaults hack is too ugly to live).
