I think there is a slight confusion here.  You are patching F_LINK_NUM
command, right?  Since your current scheme describes the texts to be
entered in the prompt after invoking F_LINK_NUM, not the actual keystroke
involved for using F_LINK_NUM feature, whether the +/- keys are reserved
or not should not matter at all.
