Sorry but it's still a bit confusing to me so taking a step back
- on a stock XPS with the non-SRU version, what keycode do you get in xev
- on a stock cosmic what happens when you use the key
- does that command works to get out of airplane mode?
gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Rfkill \
--object-path /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/Rfkill \
--method org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Set \
org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Rfkill AirplaneMode '<false>'
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760517 is the upstream bug
which discussed the current handling of that key in g-s-d)

Bug description:
* Impact
the airplane mode key doesn't work in GNOME
* Test case
Use a laptop with a key to activate airplane mode, it should toggle the
corresponding mode on/off when used
* Regression potential
The change adds a new key definition but doesn't touch any existing one,
nothing specific to test out of the new key working
---------------------
There are a couple things going on, that could be fixed by a Debian or
Ubuntu maintainer:
- libxkbdcommon needs to be updated from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2. This
introduces the RFKill key: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives
/wayland-devel/2017-August/034721.html
- x11-proto needs a new release. This commit added RFKill, but it is
not in a release:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/xproto/commit/?id=98a32d328e7195e12c38baa877917335bceffbaf
- Likely other X11 packages need to be rebuilt.
