Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: If I'm looking at a listing in the TVSeries plugin, I can press the "0" (zero) key on the keyboard to open a context menu for deleting the currently selected show (not the actual "Context Menu", but the menu you'd get by opening the real context menu, choosing "Actions", then "Delete"). That's just what I want, except I want to make it work from the remote. I have no trouble getting the remote button press all the way into MP/MessagePlugin (I can prove this by mapping the button to, for instance, open the real context menu and play a sound, which works fine). But what I want is to make that remote button press emulate pressing the "0" key on the keyboard. I assume all I need to do is change the mapping action from "Context Menu" (for example) to "Key Press" and enter some magical numbers in the "Key" fields. But what the hell are the magical numbers?
