Universal grounded plug?
Is there a universal plug that converts grounded to grounded, every country? Bits and pieces like a Schuko grounding collar exists but I would not call them universal.

I've never seen one with grounding, but that doesn't mean they don't exist.
I've never liked the all in one plugs anyways, they are sometimes too big for a recessed socket, or won't stay in without having something to prop them up, and if you forget it, you have lost all your plugs.

Right now it's just professional curiosity 
ever had one of those laptops that use a cloverleaf? Right. Sometimes the ground is used to ground the metal of the laptop (guess which high profile laptop maker makes metal laptops) and it's extremely dangerous to use a 2-to-3 with them.
