Hmm, similar to something else I looked at (also explained using xev to
see what codes occur when you press a key), expanding a bit on something
I was curious about though not quite enough (whether you need to provide
a label for some keys, or you can just plonk 0xa4 into the shortcut
editor).  It now looks like I might have to do that extra step.

If so, I wonder if there's some way I cam set up a custom keymap for my
keyboard (some Labtech Y-RAC66 thing not in the list of keyboards),
label it sensibly, and leave it somewhere on the net for the next poor
victim.
