If the hardware is actually reporting two different key-codes for what amounts
to the same key, something feels a bit wrong about lying and saying they're the
same key because there's some freakishly pathological case where a keyboard
could have two different Menu keys, one sending 147 and one sending 135.  So I
don't feel satisfied with the solution I proposed.

However, I don't have the ontological expertise in this area of code to make a
determination regarding what a "correct" fix would be—your suggestion, mine, or
something entirely different.

That said, I'm glad to be shining light on these "my Menu key doesn't work" out
there. And I imagine that whatever the _right_ fix is, it will be a similar
change of one or two lines. :-)
