I'm not a designer or UX expert, just a regular user. I'm wondering how using the <super> key (or any keyboard shortcut) to initiate an action by the mouse helps anything? If I'm going to use the mouse, I'll just use the mouse, with a slight move to the left, I'm at the edge of the monitor anyway (I use reveal) If I'm using keyboard shortcuts, I'll probably just stick with the keyboard. If I were someone who found it more productive to work with both mouse and keyboard shortcuts, I could imagine it getting annoying that I had to reposition the mouse. If experienced these kinds of optimizations before where software was trying to anticipate where I want the mouse, but I've never seen it work. jdo -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~unity-design Post to : unity-design@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~unity-design More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
