How to create a key map that is off by default?

I would like to create a Key Map that is only active when I mouse over a click bar button. I created a Mapped Key that uses "pressed OR released" to activate the Key Map on mouseover, and deactivate it when the mouse leaves. This is working great!

The only problem is that until I've moused over the Click Bar the first time, the Key Map is already active. I would like for it to begin its life in the OFF state, and only get turned ON by the click bar. I can make this happen using the "Perform this Mapped Key when Character Set is loaded or reloaded", but then I have to remember to do that in every character set.

Is there a better way to set the default state of the Key Map?

Re: How to create a key map that is off by default?

For anybody who finds this Googling, I found a solution.

If you do not add any Character Sets to the Key Map, it will be off by default. The action that sets the state to ON will still enable the Key Map for the relevant characters.
