http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/qt.html#Key-enum (but remove the "Qt::Key_" 
from the constant to get the key name) provides the list of all possible 
keys, but Scott's recommendation to use MythControls to see what 
/you've/ defined is the best approach.  Because, after all, if you have 
no mapping for a key, it won't do anything whether you send it using 
LIRC or using a keyboard.
