Comment(by AlbertCahalan):

 Notches along both edges wouldn't be too bad. That leaves the top smooth,
 which is important for the slider.

 The non-slider keys could just be made distinct. Having them connected at
 all is undesirable.

 The slider is a funny case. Ideally, the user would not know or care that
 there are 7 distinct buttons. Ideally, there would be an infinite number
 of buttons. It is after all supposed to be a slider.
