Credentials candidate from heuristic interprets keycodes as US keyboard layout

[pmcRTR]

My RDP client machine and my backend RDP server are set for UK keyboard layout.

I noticed that password credentials keycodes are interpreted by PyRDP as if a US keyboard layout is in use.

For example, if I log in using a password like H@ppy, PyRDP logs will instead report that password attempt as being H"ppy

Is there any way for PyRDP to interpret password attempts based on the keyboard layout of the connecting client machine so that passwords always match what was attempted?

Right now I believe that PyRDP converts the scan codes it receives into virtual key codes and those virtual key codes are not translated further into a keyboard layout if one is specified by the client.

This would be an interesting feature to add. Here is some context that could help implementation:
