Comment (by walter):
Replying to [ticket:463 krstic]:
> 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?
There is another "nubbins" problem: the F and J keys are "innies" instead
of "outies".
