Strange, that's just what I've seen it do in some Mandrake installs - not all 
three keys (which is my bitch), but the left "Window" key can bring up the KDE 
menu.  

Sure, easy to bind it to a keycode, or to launch a specific program.  
Significantly more difficult to bind it to a function within a subfunction of 
the window manager.

Yes, I know it's possible to get it to work, to track down whatever is managing 
the keyboard in a given environment and enable something with it.  My point is 
that if you're going to offer a configuration that's specific to a 104 key 
keyboard, that configuration should do something with those extra keys.  If 
not, why specifiy a keyboard at all?  Why not have "Generic 101-104 key US"?
