I did this! I electrically extended the two keys on the bottom right of my keyboard (a 4 row 12 column Let's Split [0]) to two switches that you'd use for, say, running a drill press. I used hold/tap to give them more functionality, so one was shift/tab and the other was command/enter. I could change applications pretty smoothly with Command Tab and it was satisfying to send a command line command on its way with my foot. The switches were heavy enough that I could rest my foot on them without pushing them down at all. But it was weird keeping my foot in the same spot the whole time; I'd rather fidget and move them around. If I make them work with my Iris [2] (possibly by making a third half of it on the i2c bus) I'd strap the switches to my feet.
