Special Key: Open Apple / Windows Key

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Login successfully
2. Attempt to send an open apple (command) or windows key
3. There's no special key for it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It would be nice if the open apple key and windows keys were supported.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Android 2.0.1, latest version as of the date of this post.

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm not sure how dificult it would be, but a lot of key shortcuts in mac os
x require the apple key to execute properly.

Windows key is Ctrl-Esc, which you can send from the Send Keys menu item

Apple key I will have to work out the mapping for

True, if you just need to hit the Windows Key, Ctrl+Esc works.

But you can also hold down the Windows Key in combination with other keys to 
perform certain tasks (similar to how Ctrl or Alt works).  For example, Windows 
Key + L locks the computer.  Windows Key + R opens the "Run" dialog.
