Is it possible to set a keyboard layout per app?

I use Dvorak for my day-to-day work, however I find that Microsoft's Remote Desktop application doesn't play very nicely with this: if I connect to an existing session it will use whatever keymap was in place before (usually US), *but if I connect and it logs in a new session, it will set the keymap to dvorak which affects other users if they log in*! It would be nice if Microsoft could make it not break, but I don't see that happening any time soon. Meanwhile, is it possible to set a keymap for a particular application? I've tried the option **Automatically switch to a document's input source**, but this doesn't seem to have any noticeable effect.
