ISO 8601: a better date format

I like the method that Mac OS uses to detect the layout of a newly connected keyboard. It brings up a dialog asking the user to press specific keys (something like "type the | character") until there is only one possible layout that would generate the observed keycodes for the characters in question.

It’s really well done - and usually Identifies the most common keyboards in only a few key presses.

Same method as certain mainstream Linux distros has been using the last few years? Or has Mac been doing this for even longer (I cannot remember how it worked back in 2012, the last time I used Mac.)
