If you look in /usr/X11R6/include/X11/XF86keysym.h there is a bunch of
additional keynames you can use. For example, in my .xmodmaprc I have
keycode 146 = XF86Mail
keycode 166 = XF86HomePage
keycode 158 = XF86Search
I find this easier to manage if the keynames have some resemblance to
the symbol printed on the keyboard.
