I agree that the second approach sounds like the most desirable.  

It would be great to provide a checkbox in the per-player options for
each button specifying whether to 'override' the global button behavior.
I guess this would really just be the same as an 'enable' button,
actually.  The point being that the per-player button macro definition
could/would be left in place even when the global button behavior was
desired for a particular player.  You could just uncheck the
enable/override option and fall back to the global button behavior (if
defined).  Re-checking the option would re-enable to per-player macro
behavior...

Wholehearted concurrence, BigPotato, about the how useful Kidsplay is
for implementing a useful sleep function.  The truth is that since there
are other holes in the high level off-the-shelf functionality provided
by the Radio, the Kidsplay plugin is really a wonderful tool for getting
the types of behavior you want in a single button press (as long as the
CLI functions work as advertised).

Frankly, I'd like to see twice or three times as many preset buttons on
the Radio (or an easy context sensitive way to swap back and forth
between different sets of preset button definitions for the existing six
- for example, by hitting a different Radio button cause a switch to the
next set of preset button definitions).  Then a simple overlay template
(or just a small font printed square of paper stuck on the top of the
Radio) could list the different preset definitions.

Anyway, thanks for your support Peter.  Using the CLI commands along
with Kidsplay really seems to allow for taking advantage of the true
capabilities of the Radio in the absence of attention being paid to
off-the-shelf Logitech provided functionality...
