General OpenTTD • Assigning Thumb Keys

Howdy Hi.

I have recently changed from a full sized keyboard to a downsized keyboard for more desk space, which means some of my assigned keys no longer exist, no big problem i am reassigning them. DEL was used to get rid of windows, well now I use HOME instead, no biggie. I thought to save time I can assign some stuff to the thumb keys. I have tried THUMB1/2 and MOUSE4/5 but neither seem to be recognised. Does OpenTTD simply not have access to these keys internally, or am I missing an obvious thing when manually remapping keys using the keys config file?

Sidenote; Hopefully it is on the radar to make remapping keys easier within the game than manual editing of the keys config file.
