While attempting to drift off to sleep last night, it occurred to me that
lircd already has support for attaching to input devices, so it might be
an option to extend lircd and the lirc client library to have a "pass raw
keycodes" mode. Both xmbc and mythtv already have options to build in lirc
client support, so it'd just be minor extension of its use in both cases,
at least in theory...
