Summary: Spell LST KEY: makes ambiguous statement

Initial Comment:
In all four versions of KEY (for some reason shown in Spell LST), there is something like:

"Potions modifier's will work without a KEY but work much better using the KEY than the name."

First of all, most of these items are NOT RELEVANT to Spell LST, KEY is a global token... I don't know if it's valuable to state it's part of Spell (but we should be consistent with Type, which the docs also make unique to each LST file for some reason)

Second, it should be made clear that the KEY is an optional Token, BUT when used, the user MUST ALWAYS use the Key to refer to the item, the name WILL NOT WORK.

Thus in Spell LST:

Whiz Bangy <tab> KEY:Foo

...

In another file:
PRESPELL:1,Whiz Bangy

WILL NOT WORK

Requires:
PRESPELL:1,Foo
