I use a modified layout based on the Brazilian standard keyboard (called ABNT-2).
ABNT-2 differs from Europe ISO keyboard by having an extra key and (because of that) a smaller right shift key.
However, the Brazilian Thinkpad T420 keyboard does not have this extra key (it was based on European ISO keyboard), so to fix that, AltGR+Q acts as this extra key, and AltGr+W acts as the shifted variant of this extra key. Some variants have this extra key in place of the Right Control (as in the image below).

My modifications are:
• Esc in place of the quote key (the key at the left of number 1 on Brazilian keyboard).
• Left Control in place of the Caps Lock.
• Compose key in place of the Left Control.

ABNT-2 (standard Brazilian keyboard):
