I quite liked the coordinate system proposal. I can propose this:

Vendor maps the keyboard lights to a grid. That would be something
16x8 for thinkpad X220. Then we provide functionality to query "is a
working pixel there" and "what kind of key is at this pixel" -- I
guess we can use input keycodes for that. Multiple pixels can map to
one keycode.

(And then we make best effort to map normal keyboards into similar
grids).
