This encodes what everyone is doing and avoids other implementers
having to guess.

Jasper suggested that it would be nice if the compositor sent keycodes
that clients could use directly as an index in the keymap. I suppose
we can't do that at this point so we should at least document it
clearly in the protocol so that implementers don't have to guess.
