I'll let the input and hid subsystem maintainers have the final say here, though I think that sending out Win+O would be easier, as this is already something that desktops need to support for those devices that send the actual Win+O key combination when those buttons are pressed there. If we're going with the separate keycode, could you also file bugs against xkbd-common and xkeyboard-config to get the key added to the list of XF86 keysyms and to the default evdev keymap? Otherwise Wayland and X11 based desktops won't be able to use it.

Any movement on this? Are we just waiting on an ACK/NAK from Dmitry?

The key has the same use as the SW_ROTATE_LOCK, but is used on devices where the state is not tracked by the hardware but has to be handled in software.
