That's how they are defined now, yes, but I've had occasion to use both
in other positions. {ga'o} could have a more general sense of "included"
and {ke'i} "excluded", so for example I could say:
mi viska ro le prenu e la djan ga'o
I saw everybody, including John.
{ra'o} need not be attached to the selbri in order to update pronouns.
You may want to say {ta e ta ra'o e ta ra'o} for "that one, and that one
(another one) and that one (another one). {... ta ... ije ... ta ra'o
nai ...}, "... that one ... that one (the same one) ...", and I'm sure
there are other uses.

That would be a first step in the right direction.
