That's wonderful to know.  Now It doesn't feel odd that you can't have
two mappings on the same key with USB keyboards, knowing that AT
keyboards are not meant to have it either.

Thank you very much for this finding.  After I try it out I'm going to
look for the right place to report this issue.

Have a good one!
