#463: Nubbins on slider keys are confusing

 Standard keyboards (both laptop and standalone) commonly have nubbins on
 the F and J keys to aid home row positioning. The three sets of slider
 keys on our keyboard also have nubbins, but between each individual
 setting of each slider key. This is really confusing to me, because the
 nubbins themselves can be pushed in ("typed", like a key) but with
 unpredictable behavior.

 Are we sure the nubbins need to be there?
