If someone ever does a survey, I'd be interested to read a blog post on this :-)
In my case I'm not sure what I prefer. When switching from AZERTY to QWERTY, I'm lost because the keybindings are not the same. Especially that CTRL+Z "becomes" CTRL+W which kills the current tab, and CTRL+W "becomes" CTRL+Q which kills the app.
OTOH, I don't usually switch layouts, and like that the configuration file / the UI matches the current layout.
I guess the conf could allow setting layout-specific keybindings. It complicates things quite a bit though.
