Oh, I see.  No, I don't know where it's coming from.  I thought that we
(under X) got the key symbols for (some) keys from X, and didn't
maintain the database ourselves?  So we can basically get any symbol
that the X people dream up.

I thought that was the conclusion the last time keyboard events was
discussed, but my memory may well be faulty.
