I will do that in v5, then.

As I'll be sending a v5 anyway, do you think Pali's idea is bad?
Personally, I'm leaning towards it.  IMHO comparing against reported_key
would emphasize the fact that only event 0xe025 is "special" and chances
are that there are no other WMI event codes which need to be handled
this way.
