The remote control system seems a bit hackish, translating remote

library?
It would seem better for the keybindings to natively support LIRC
events (new column in keybinding). This would make patches like trac
#549 unnecessary, and might allow for greater flexibility. I've fixed
the remotekey-to-keypress mapping, and morphed my keybindings around
to get the functionality mapping as much as reasonable. If I ever
actually wanted to use my keyboard, it would be difficult.
However, this may be considered a problem or there may be some more
fundamental reason for the current Lirc => KeyPress => action string
=> function call process I've seen in multiple places of which I am
unaware.

I currently working on a little stand-alone app that will route lirc
events directly into the input handler of the kernel. That way I can
use a standard keyboard/even wireless and then map (via config file)
remote keyppresses to any key without having to remap the physical
keyboard.. The original intention was to allow me to use
more/additional programs without having to worry about lirc support.
I've always had trouble with lirc and focus anyways, now I'll let X
handle it.
