I wonder if this could be something coming
down the pipeline; look at the iPhone and how
Steve touted the completely touch-screen UI
as being malleable depending on how things
change down the road. What if keyboards went
this route, so we could make these kinds of
modifications ourselves? I hope I'm not
getting too ridiculously speculative here,
but being able to make these changes
ourselves, perhaps even contextually based on
which app or site we're using at any given
time (say, a giant J for Google Reader, but
other keys could enlarge if you switch to
working in After Effects, GarageBand or
Photoshop), could bring an entirely new level
of productivity to our computing.
I just had an idea.. how about a big red
button like the "Easy Button" in
those Staples commercials, it could connect
through USB and be programmable to any key or
mouse click. :-) Hell I might would put mine
on the floor so I could just click it with my
foot! One for the S key might be good too,
although I probably star more articles than I
should already.

Foot switch, to give your hands a rest. :) Oh wait, I can already place a programmable joystick on the floor.
