--- Comment #1 from Gary Kacmarcik <[email protected]> ---
This is another one of those keys that cannot have a name that matches every
locale. This key is rare and for the few cases where it is present, we need to
have a name that properly identifies it.

Hence the names "Decimal" and "Comma", which are meant to go hand-in-hand to
make the keys easy to identify for locales that swap the 2 meanings.

In addition, the name "Separator" is very generic and might lead to confusion.

FWIW, the USB spec, when faced with the same problem, chose "Keypad Comma" as
the name for this key. See footnote 27 for Table 12 in the USB HID Usage
Tables.
