Sun Keyboard, special keys not recognized

[fesc2000]

Operating Systems

Server: Linux, Ubuntu 16.04

Client: Macos 10.15

Barrier Version

2.3.2

Steps to reproduce bug

This might be more an enhancement request .. barrier would be the perfect tool to finally support the SunCopy/Paste/..etc keys under MacOs. However, when trying to define a hotkey for them they are simply not recognized.

Most other linux application either support them out of the box or allow keymapping.
