When did Tom (of PQzII) tell you that? Because I used his PQz Check app to prove that the caps and alt keys do send key codes. Caps sends:
DOWN 0xF2 OFF
UP 0xF2 OFF
When I press Alt I get:
DOWN 0xF1 OFF
UP 0xF1 OFF
Whoever was telling you that no key codes are sent must have been thinking of the Universal, which indeed does not.
I PM'ed tom_hiro255 on xda-dev about this a few weeks ago but never heard a response--I assumed he wasn't interested in developing yet another version of PQz for Apache users (like he did for the Wizard).
But his own app shows that key codes are sent when those two buttons are pressed.
You should go prove it to your coworker and humiliate him into writing the software to do this (it should be a cinch for a C++ developer--in fact I believe the capnotify.exe was written in C++).
