--- Comment #5 from Gary Kacmarcik <garykac@google.com> ---
> I believe that these code values should be abstract names such as LANG1, LANG2 of USB HID spec.

Yes, if different keys share the same values, then we should use the more
generic Lang1 ... Lang5 names.

> This sound like the concept of .key value. Doesn't .code represent physical keys?

Yes, but I was (incorrectly) thinking that the key had only a single purpose,
in which case the |key| and |code| values would be similar.  Since the Korean
and Mac Japanese keyboards share the same USB code, they should share the same
|code| values.

I've updated the code value tables with the new names and the additional
information that you provided.

Thanks!
