Has anyone created a set of "rebind-key"s that define all function
keys to some kind of null?

Specifically, I define some of my function keys, but when I press
a key that is not defined (eg. a shifted function key) I get
garbage in the buffer.

Would it be better to have an epoch function that clears all
know function keys?

No. Try playing with the variable epoch::function-key-mapping. I think
it's in section 7 of the manual. The "garbage" is done by Epoch, not
by X, and is only done for backwards compatability with GNU Emacs.
