Well, I'm wondering whether it's really to be done and maintained within
brltty, and not just within Orca, which is what knows what it wants to
do. Brltty exports commands just because it happens to have them. If
some client likes the way it is, then it can use them, and otherwise,
I don't think brltty can really provide something that would be good,
compared to defining key tables on the client side.
