Which kind of "punch through" do you mean? I've never really understood that aspect of my OFA remotes. I've seen them almost do what I want for that, but not enough to understand or control the pattern.

For VCR basic buttons (in fact for most buttons on the remote). I'd like it to remember the last selected device that included the button. When I switch from VCR1 to cable, I'd like play, rewind etc. to still be VCR1. When I switch from VCR2 to cable, I'd like them to be VCR2. In either case I tend to be in cable mode when I tend to want to press record or pause or stop or OTR etc. Why should I need to switch back to VCRx mode if my Cinema 6 has enough buttons?

For Vol, I want a different behavior. Vol is controlled by the TV. I want TV vol regardless of what device I'm in. I programmed it that way and it worked. Occasionally I have to reprogram that feature because it seems easy to lose parts of it.
