I think what Stefan meant was to replace multiple single keys with  
one single key. E.g. 'e'-'r' with just 'r'. You can reach about 80  
keys without modifier on a standard keyboard, which should be plenty  
together with the standards like ctrl-c, ctrl-x, ctrl-s etc.

Additionally to that it might be possible to make modifier keys  
sticky, like smartphones do. Ubuntus' Unity uses this technique on  
the PC. Stickiness only happens when the modifier is pressed and  
released without pressing another key in between, so you can have  
even both, successive single keys and modified single keys.


Markus

P.S.: sticky modifier keys are apparently already part of the helpers  
for people with disabilities, so it might be just a matter of  
enabling this for one application.
