cool
One thing has been bothering me a bit about the whole keymap thing
though.. why aren't we using xml for it?
afterall, that would fit in the whole .net spirit and all...
it would also make working with file format versions easier since we
could use xslt to upgrade a file..

next to that, we should be able to name keys since not all keys will
be readable characters..
...so we should be able to define that keycode 27 is called 'escape'
in english in the us & uk keymap

other than that we also need to be able to handle stuff such as:

ctrl-break not only has a completely different keycode compared to
pause, there is also no release keycode when you release the key
combination.

shift-a becomes A when no capslock but a when capslock is activated...
shift-1 however will always be ! even if capslock is activated or not.
In other words; shift is not capslock.
