I tried several variants and I like "*" immediately after the the closing
bracket:

[Home key        ]
[Page Down key   ]*
[Page Up key     ]

Anyway, that "OK" is documented in several places, so I'm not going to fix
it before the release.

I'm probably too easy to influence :-)

I really should go through all the remaining issues this night and sent a
notice to the translators, or we won't see mc-4.5.55 in August.
