For FN+N (originally KEY_DEBUG_SYS_INFO) the proposal was to now use KEY_VENDOR there. My conclusion was that this is targeting vendor specific functionality, and that was the closest fit, if a new keycode was not preferred. For the doubletap (which is a unique input event - not related to the pointer) I would like to keep it as a new unique event. I think it's most likely use would be for control panel, but I don't think it should be limited to that. I can see it being useful if users are able to reconfigure it to launch something different (browser or music player maybe?), hence it would be best if it did not conflict with an existing keycode function. I also can't confirm it doesn't clash on existing or future systems - it's possible. FWIW - I wouldn't be surprised with some of the new gaming systems we're seeing (Steamdeck, Legion-Go, etc), that a doubletap event on a joystick might be useful to have, if the HW supports it?
