like F1 - F24 or LaunchApplication1 - LaunchApplication2, key name list needs a lot of rows for defining them. On the other hand, these amount isn't enough. Gecko defined additional keys:

F25 - F35 and LaunchApplication3 - LaunchApplication18.

If D3E spec continues to define them one-by-one, I'd like you to define them too. Otherwise, for smaller and readable key name list table, D3E spec should use better way to define such key.  Then, each browser vender doesn't need to file new key definition request for such keys.

We should definitely add these to the spec.
