Yes, we're short with keys.

Now that's something new, complains about being too fast! ;)

Well, perhaps not on+play (because the plugin is not running by then), but
the emulator could look for a config file with the same name but different
extension.

There's a lot of possible improvements for the emulator, but I didn't spend
any more time to it because basically those games suck, to tell my honest
opinion, and the set seems rather limited. I haven't found any other than those
we have. Better spend some time in writing native Rockbox games.
