Interesting. Keycode 51 is also produced by the backslash key.
Like the Mac keyboard problem reported by various people earlier, this one
comes under the heading of things I'm not going to fix right now (since it
would require significant changes).
It's obvious, though, that in some ways the keyboard problem is more difficult
than I though it was.
