I am on the fence on this one. If someone got a keymap from a feed and
didn't customize it but used this interface to install it, it would
really mean much to them that it says custom.

Do you feel strongly about this one? I would rather see the up arrow on
the mulitkey graphic change to something that looks like a way to
configure it. Do you have a graphic that has a different image then the
up arrow? I am not sure what you can put there that is both small and
descriptive. It might be better to suck it up and put another key below
the keyboard that says 'config'.
