 Which means in order to prevent "!!!!!!" being written while holding down
 keycode 10 on the mouse, which is supposed to be shift, the 10 of the
 key-mapper /dev node has to be mapped to none as well. But that would
 prevent a key that is mapped to "1", which translates to 10, from working.

 I assume this is because:
 - mouse-10 down
-- keymapper says: shift down
+- keymapper says: 50 down
+- xkb mapping: 10 is none. 50 is shift.
 - keyboard-10 down (down again? X/Linux ignores that)

 - keyboard-10 down, "!" written
