Ah, indeed!  This should be filed under principle 7, along with all
those other things I haven't a clue how to address yet.  Hopefully
we'll come up with solutions as we try out various keymap ideas.

Oh, don't get me wrong, my numerical keypad is a cornerstone of my
blender use.  But if we can find a reasonable way to accomplish the
same things without it, I think we should go for it.  And even if we
do, we can still leave the numpad as-is for those who do have a
numpad.
