Since the discussion started off talking about Mac integration, "spurious keying" is not a problem on the Mac anyway.
And, taping the esc key kills the transmission, and, speed can be controlled with the K3 speed control. As much as I like my Winkeyer USB I also like not having a bunch of little black boxes on my desk and using RUMlog or RUMped with the K3 keyer eliminates the need for the Winkeyer box, at least for me.
