    There is no practical sense in which any keysym (such as num_lock)
    is defined as a function keysym,  or a modifier keysym,  or as any
    different from any other keysym.

Sorry, David, this is not correct.  Xlib has macros for "categorizing"
keysyms (see section 10.1.2).  You can decide that this was a mistake
(and I might agree), but there it is.
