Sadly, no, these are not logical pairs. But maybe this is a reasonable
compromise anyway:

- OP_GET_CAPS seems to be consistent between different functions; it
is an operation which returns a bitfield describing given model's
"capabilities" in a certain area (LEDs, buttons, etc.),

- some functions expose only OP_GET_CAPS, OP_SET, and OP_GET,

- some functions expose only OP_GET_CAPS and OP_GET_EVENTS,

- some function expose OP_GET_CAPS, OP_GET_EVENTS, OP_GET_EXT and
OP_SET_EXT (but not OP_SET or OP_GET, probably because 0x1 is
already "taken" by OP_GET_EVENTS).

So, given the above, does this layout look reasonable to you (at least
somewhat) or would you rather see these constants shuffled around in
some other way?
