--- Comment #2 from Tim Chase <freebsd@tim.thechases.com> ---
(In reply to Tatsuki Makino from comment #1)

If the hardware is actually reporting two different key-codes for what amou=
nts
to the same key, something feels a bit wrong about lying and saying they're=
 the
same key because there's some freakishly pathological case where a keyboard
could have two different Menu keys, one sending 147 and one sending 135.  S=
o I
don't feel satisfied with the solution I proposed.

However, I don't have the ontological expertise in this area of code to mak=
e a
determination regarding what a "correct" fix would be=E2=80=94your suggesti=
on, mine, or
something entirely different.

That said, I'm glad to be shining light on these "my Menu key doesn't work"=
 out
there. And I imagine that whatever the _right_ fix is, it will be a similar
change of one or two lines. :-)
