 I'm not really sure about that, actually.

 I guess you misunderstood: the public headers don't have an author list
 (InterfaceDefs.h), everything else has.

 >> I also believe (but haven't checked) that you break the on-disk format
 of our binary keymap files -- this would not be acceptable at all.

 First of all, it's unreasonable to have to watch a video for this. Please
 just answer in plain text instead. Also, that video doesn't show that.
 While the text format looks similar, the binary format may not. Can't you
 just answer for real, and show me why it does not break the binary format
 compatibility?

 We'd really like to include this functionality into Haiku, and appreciate
 your effort. However, in the current form, we cannot accept your patch,
 unfortunately.
