Reactive.  Adding new models will always take turnaround, vendors won't
agree what keys should send what keysyms, blah blah.

I mean, yes, wonderful work, but we still need to fix the enablement
path of hardware we've never seen before.  "Poke all the weird keys on
your keyboard, tell me what they mean, and then click here to submit
upstream" sounds like a nice model.
