Right I get that; the reason why I want to make thinkpad-keys go away
is that it's one of the top powerhogs as measured by powertop in terms
making the CPU wake up all the time.  

The question I was asking was how do I make my Ubuntu/Feisty
userspace's *use* the new input events, so that things like the
brightness controls and volume up/down buttons actually work
correctly without thinkpad-keys running....
