James: It is possible to switch out the functional keys so that it takes a press of both the Fn+Functional key. This is accessed through the Apple (Pomme) -> Systems Settings -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Keyboard tab -> and I think you can figure it out from here. (I almost forgot about this setting.)
This will send Functional key presses for F1-F10 directly to the program. F11 and F12 for some reason stay "stuck". I will add this to the Wiki when I have time.
