Admittedly, yes, I’m also using a keyboard. My opinion is that you’ll probably 
have to do quite a lot of customizing to use a Braille display as a primary 
keyboard.

For switching apps, I’d probably map a braille keystroke to VO-applications 
list. (VO-f1 twice quickly)I don’t think there’s an easy way to map one to 
command-tab.
