Any key that's a valid X keysym should be parsed provided it can be found in
the current keymap. But the spelling is important: Num_Lock
"End" should just work since it's a valid keysym.
For PgDn/PgUp ("Prior" and "Next") it's not as obivous so that warrants
specialcasing. See attached patch.

two separate issues here:
xsetwacom has a bug and doesn't set keys atm. see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=27184850
I'm about to push the fix for this though.
With the fix in it works
$> xsetwacom get "Wacom Intuos4 6x9 pad" Button 2
key +Prior -Prior
the other issue:
any desktop UI that relies on xsetwacom output is broken by
design. a UI should do what xsetwacom does in the background (read the
property, extract keycodes, convert to keysyms etc.) but not rely on
xsetwacom directly.
Cheers,
Peter

Subject: [PATCH] xsetwacom: add pgup and pgdwn as special keys.
"Prior" and "Next" aren't quite that obvious so specialcasing seems
warranted here.
