Hello,
Generally speaking, note that brltty is modular: you can leave
everything as a module, and thus actual dependencies depend on which
modules you actually install.

The super key should be synthesizable.

I can speak for this one: it's not possible, because it is a key which
is handled by the BIOS of the PC itself, software does not see it. So it
can't be synthesized.
Others should be possible to synthesize.
