In windows (I play a lot of games on windows), switching between keyboard layouts is extremely painful because its per application and not global.
That is, if I want to change the keyboard layout for GameX, I must start GameX, minimize it, change keyboard layout (and hope that it applied it to GameX - often it does not), maximize GameX.
Alternatively, I have to remove Colemak as a keyboard layout and set qwerty as the only layout. This is even more effort.
Basically, in windows, changing keyboard layout to play games is not a viable solution. Believe me, I've tried. I don't play those games anymore...
