RFLink: Use each button of 433 MHz remote individual

Hi, I recently added the original RFLink Gateway (from nodo-shop.nl) to my Hassio server. Everything works like a charme!

I love having these cheap 433.92 MHz remotes as extra input. But the problem of rflink integeration is that if I bind an ordinary remote as switch/binary_sensor two buttons are used for one toggle e.g.:

1. Button A on:

• [homeassistant.components.rflink] event of type command: {'id': 'powerfix_0f80_01', 'command': 'on'}

2. Button A off:

• [homeassistant.components.rflink] event of type command: {'id': 'powerfix_0f80_01', 'command': 'off'}

Is there a way to fire an event after each button press of either on or off button? I don’t want to remember the last state and just have all the events. That way I could bind double the automations to a remote and I don’t have to concern about the current state of the toggle if an action was already triggered otherwise (e.g. timer).
Now if for example something turns off the light I have also to toggle the on/off switch of the remote to the corresponding state before I can turn the light on with the remote again.

edit: I forgot to write that I use Node Red for automation. So I want all the single button press events also to use in there…
