Now this is a feature I'd support too.... Over the years I've gotten
reasonably good at guessing speeds, but I still tend to overestimate this. I
was working some of the stations in the 7QP contest last night with my K3
and RUMLog and on several occasions estimated their speed at around 30wpm.
But when I adjusted the keyer to their speed it was closer to 25wpm. 

It'd be pretty cool if the rig had the option to figure out the character
speed and be able to adjust the keyer accordingly. Tho if the sending
station is using Farnsworth weighting, you might still want to do this
manually....

As for a permanent display of keying speed, yeah I can see how the lack of
real estate on the display is a problem here. But I'd support that too (tho
RUMLog for example always displays the keyer speed in the keyer dialog)....
