In what way the key interface is unsufficient for delivering button

At present: 128 different keys only (RC5: one group).

Where did this limitation come from? We have more than 256 keycodes already _defined_ in the input core and we can add more if needed.


One remote per
device only.

Why would you want more? One physical device usually corresponds to a logical device. If you have 2 remotes create 2 devices.

The protocol itself doesn't have the above limitations, but has others,
with are acceptable for key input.
