I did ask at windowmaker's irc channel, one guy that was there (it doesn't have 
much activity) didn't know.  I searched the list archives and there's one 
message asking the same exact question, no answers; but in other messages 
there's talk about xmodmap and xkd which seem like good alternatives.

I also did download the code, if I have time I'll take a look.
