"However when the hotkeys are used, they either open a different
application than which the hotkey was set to, or none at all."

I can confirm this bug.  I have an up-to-date Oneiric installed from a
daily build after it went beta. I tried to assign a script to the key
event read (correctly) as "KbdBrightnessDown" (also "...Up"). After
assignment, pressing this key results in the OSD Notify image being
displayed just as it was before assignment and my custom action is not
called.  I am using the 2011 MacBookAir and in this case trying to have
said key run my own brightness script as the default action does
nothing.

Here is a screenshot: http://almostsure.com/img/g-c-c.png (although I
don't know why anyone would need this).
