I hope it helps for you to better understand how this works.
So the plan is to have two ways of using IR in the future which are  
incompatible to each other, the feature-set of one being a subset of the  
other?

When designing the key mapping in the kernel you should be aware that  
there are remotes out there that send a sequence of scan codes for some  
buttons, e.g.
