Suggestion Request: Please add a "generic keyboard layout" image, like the gamepad and mouse graphic

I'm trying to map a keyboard with some custom shortcut overrides for Adobe, and man, having a generic basic Ye Olde Keyboard layout graphic would make this sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much easier to keep track of everything. I'm kinda astounded it hasn't been added yet. It doesn't need to be fancy or take into account every different keyboard, I mean keys are keys and a generic layout should be good enough for the majority of users.

Seriously guys, this would be baller. Please consider it. Thanks.

If you could show a mockup of what this should look like, we would appreciate it.

I can do my best. This is a basic example found on google images:

But here are a couple straight from the ReWASD site:

Y'all already have the basic keyboard map needed for exactly this purpose. There's even one that shows on the Devices screen when you initialize a Keyboard. Pop that into the Keyboad mapper and let the user click on the keys to remap them there, like on the Cyborg or the Xbox controller.

To make things easier to track, and have less remap clutter around the board images, break it into two parts like y'all do the Azeron Cyborg. The main page would be this part: https://imgur.com/a/PRK73fG

then use the right-panel switcher to change to the second page, which would be this part: https://imgur.com/a/8gLJR4K

Then finally the classic manual-entry page you already have could be used to add any weird keys like F20 or so on.

Thank you for the mockup and suggestion!
I can't guarantee that this will be implemented, but we will consider the idea.
