Within the next few days I will be upgrading my primary Linux system to FC3.
I'll look at them again and see if it changes my opinion.

This is quite easy in KDE. In the Control Center, go to Regional &
Accessibility -> Accessibility, select the Keyboard tab and then select "Use
sticky keys". It only affect programs running under X windows, but it
affects them all, even non-KDE apps. And what would a "normal" person be
doing outside of X, anyway? :-)

Also easy. Control Center -> Peripherals -> Mouse and select Left-handed.
