"However when the hotkeys are used, they either open a different application than which the hotkey was set to, or none at all."
I can confirm this bug. I have an up-to-date Oneiric installed from a daily build after it went beta. I tried to assign a script to the key event read (correctly) as "KbdBrightnessDown" (also "...Up"). After assignment, pressing this key results in the OSD Notify image being displayed just as it was before assignment and my custom action is not called. I am using the 2011 MacBookAir and in this case trying to have said key run my own brightness script as the default action does nothing.
