How to use one keyboard for Windows and one keyboard for Mac with their own mapping?

One keyboard for Windows and another keyboard for Mac

Parallels Desktop 8 is installed in my MacBook Pro OSX 10
I have two keyboards connected to my MacBook Pro.
One is a standard wireless PC keyboard that I wish to use for Windows 7 with Windows keymapping
The other is an USB Apple keyboard that I wish to use for Mac with Apple keymapping.
The problem is that both keyboards work for both, Windows and Mac, with the Mac keymapping.
Is it possible to use Windows in Parallels with a Windows "native" keyboard as if the VM was a real PC ?
Thanks.

From the Devices -> USB menu, you can have Windows claim the PC keyboard, preventing it from being used in Mac OS X. Unfortunately, I can't think of a way to have the Apple keyboard not available to Windows.
