this is definitely something new because keyboards (for the most part) have been pretty standard. Now there's several issues of which have not even been addressed on this topic yet. For one thing, keyboards that don't have the numlock key also usually don't have the printscreen key, scroll lock key and pause keys which are also in that same group of keys right above the numpad.

The numpad keys are not even the same i.e. if you go into key describer mode and press each key on the numpad the basic keys are there, but then the delete key is a period and some other keys are not the same as well. So, even if there was a numlock key, I'm not sure if those other keys on the numpad would behave differently with Window-eyes.

Lastly, becareful when you say the shift+F10 is just the same as the context key. That's not always the case. You may get different context menus according to whether the shift+F10 was pressed, or the context key was pressed. some times the only way to bring up a menu or something is with the context key because shift+F10 will not do it or is programmed to do something else.
