Emit a button press event for all the physical buttons on the WebSokets API.
At the moment, most of the buttons are not usable most of the time. e.g. The volume (+/-) buttons work only for media players.
It would be incredibly useful if the remote could send a key press event and some context (currently active screen/entity) when a button is pressed. This would enable the integration server to handle those keypresses based on some context.
Use case example:
The +/- button could be used as a globe volume control regardless of the current screen/state of the remote.
Is there an existing issue for this?
