Interesting idea. That could be cool, I don't know how to do it right now and 
I'm getting
swamped pretty hard by homework, so I can't figure it out either. This would 
also solve
the key repeats because then repeat tag keys wouldn't derail the combo. I'd 
love to see
the results.

I don't find it awkward at all, but I use asdf instead of 123456789, which makes
tagging much nicer I find. I also just hit the combo at maximum speed without 
any regard for
order (except to hit alt first). The asdf lets me use my thumb folded under my 
hand to hit
the alt while my fingers get the tag keys. I can't reach the numbers like that, 
so I can see it
might be awkward if you use the numbers. This is probably why I didn't think of 
that.

Good luck!
