Keyboard settings to remap "search" button don't work.

Project Member Reported by vgutnik@google.com, Apr 18 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 9202.60.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.137 Safari/537.36
Platform: 9202.60.0 (Official Build) stable-channel falco

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to settings -> Device, Keyboard settings
2. Change the mapping of "search" to anything else.
3. Be sad.

What is the expected behavior?
I expect ctrl on the button where this HP chromebook has "search." I expect to be able to remap the search button to act as control.

What went wrong?
The button still acts as search, not control. I tried remapping to other things (e.g. backspace), but it still acts as search.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 57.0.2987.137  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 9202.60.0
Flash Version: 

This is a loaner chromebook.

I've just tried this on a Hana with version 59.0.3065.0 and I cannot reproduce the misbehavior, seems to be working just fine.

I can confirm this on falco but not on veyron_jaq.

Moreover, on falco the keyboard readings have undefined random behavior when the option "Treat top row keys as function keys" is set. Also "search" key no longer triggers F-keys behavior on any of the keyboard keys.
