I have an ISO layout keyboard, and I use the Danish keyboard layout in windows.
When I want to configure my layers in VIA, a lot of the keys that I can select from, are displayed as something that is not actually what would happen if I use that key code on my PC.
As an example: I want to map a key to input the < character in my text editor. Now, if I look at the available keys in the selector, I might go for the one that has , and < on it. However, that would output the wrong symbols to my editor. What I need to do, is pick the key with the label NUBS.
What I would like is to be able to select what locale my OS keyboard is configured as, and then have the key picker show the NUBS key as <>\ which are the characters that would actually get output from that keycode.
The QMK configurator calls this "Host Keyboard Layout"
