NO
The RC_MAP_NEC_TERRATEC_CINERGY_XS used only in tm6000 module.
My patch didn't kill support any other devices.

You can't use this remotes with normal working IR receivers because this receivers
returned FULL scancodes. Need add one more keytable.

1. With my variant we have one keytable of remote and some workaround in device drivers. 
    And can switch keytable and remotes on the fly (of course when keytable has really value and device driver has workaround)
    
2. With your variant we have some keytables for one remote for different IR recevers. 
    Can't use incompatible keytable with other IR recievers. It is black magic for understanding what remotes is working with this hardware.

I think my variant much better.

With my best regards, Dmitry.
