Comment:

 Keymap never shows the actual keys, but always their "function" or in
 other words, mapping to how it's used in the system. That's what it's all
 about, changing this for the modifiers in question would only be
 inconsistent, and would not serve any purpose -- you should know how the
 keys on your keyboard are labeled, you don't need an application for that.
