Hello,
pressing some keys on laptops could cause some side effects.
Example scenario 1:
Laptop has Fn key for enabling/disabling WIFI and when that
key is pressed BIOS is doing two things:
1) Switch hard rfkill state of WIFI
2) Report that Fn key was pressed to kernel
(either via i8042 bus or via ACPI/WMI)
We should not really report that as a "key" to userspace. We
might want to report that rfkill state changed....

Ok, and what about KEY_KBDILLUMTOGGLE when bios also handle
keyboard backlight level? Should be this key filtered too?
