They are Fn-1, 2, s, d, f, and e.  I can't really guess what 1 and 2
are for but I assume sdfe are arrow keys or something similar on
larger models?

I debated on if to add ignores since surely some model uses them but I
settled on someone else can modify current file instead of adding new
lines once they are driven to add their laptop specific keys.

And user land doesn't seem very supported of this concept at the
moment as well.  I've tried some xinput stuff on touchpad tied to F13
but no luck so far.  It does have a property to disable touchpad but
I've not had time to fully debug yet.  I'm trying to stay away fo
synclient since thats end-of-lifed.

Thanks.  BTW, please let me know specifically if you'd like the ignore
keys removed and I'll re-send a patch.  I don't have enough info to be
able to map them though.
