Without information on which $TERM this was you can't say authoritativly 
"this looks bad". Of course on TERM=xterm yes you are right because:

$ TERM=xterm infocmp -I | grep kf12
	kf1=\EOP, kf10=\E[21~, kf11=\E[23~, kf12=\E[24~, 
                                            ^^^^^^^^^^
(shift+F2 is the same as F12).
Remember some terminals has only few function keys (for example VT100 have
*only* F1-F4).
