@Seth: update for you. I just tested this on a Thinkpad Edge 11 that has a standard wireless hotkey (e.g. the key's primary function is wireless on/off, rather than using the Fn+F2 combo on the EeePCs I discovered this on) and this does not happen.

So in my experience so far, this issue only occurs on systems that use the Fn+F* combo to trigger wireless on and off.

lsinput on the Edge11 shows them as "ThinkPad Extra Buttons" rather than just HotKeys
/dev/input/event7
   bustype : BUS_HOST
   vendor : 0x17aa
   product : 0x5054
   version : 16641
   name : "ThinkPad Extra Buttons"
   phys : "thinkpad_acpi/input0"
   bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_SW

but when I try input-events on that event (and event3, the AT Keyboard), nothing is captured yet again.
