May I then suggest a little smaller change for this instead? Could we 
have a human readable table with translations from internal key names 
like <paste>, <next> to standard keyboard names? Just those names that 
differ should go into the table of course.

BTW, it feels ridiculous, but I have never been able to learn where 
<paste> is on my keyboard. Since I use CUA mode and Viper I have no 
problems really with that, but it feels strange not to know it. Maybe I 
asked once before, I am not sure.
