Yeah, the fn-thing isn't so convienient. Do you have another idea for getting 
these? Or if they're even necessary? I know that Alt_R is often used for 
AltGr on European keyboards, but are the others used in a standard way?

Well, yeah. :) But if the key is not really useful (say, Insert), I assume 
there's a minimal penalty for keeping the map around with no real need, but I 
would live if I couldn't use Insert.
