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.

&gt; I refer to Sticky keys by way of the window's terminology that enables

&gt; only time with a single finger or other prosthetic.  It would be nice 
&gt; to see this as several layers such as the kernel to allow this feature 
&gt; during a commandline session, and X to be applied to all aspects of 
&gt; X-Windows irregardless of window manager.

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

&gt; Reversing the mouse buttons is an ergonomical issue.  In my case I can 
&gt; rotate my hand to the right much easier than the left, so I revearse 
&gt; my buttons for ease of use.  Unfortunately, I have not had much luck 
&gt; using this feature out of KDE.

Also easy.  Control Center -&gt; Peripherals -&gt; Mouse and select Left-handed.
