We don't want this, and we aren't really able to do this, because we
never know if two different scan codes are part of the same or different
command set.

Sharing the protocol and e.g. group code doesn't mean it's the same
remote.

Different protocol doesn't mean it's a different remote and what's more
important, doesn't mean the user wants it to be a different logical
remote.
