Out of curiosity, how could a user find them without knowing the 
functions are there already?  I can't find those functions with which, 
help, or iskeyword.  It seems like they should show up somehow 
(especially with help).  I could add them to the help documentation for 
keyboard, but that doesn't help too much if they don't have their own 
help pages.
