Does something like this have even a slightest chance to kick in (mainstream)? Computers are now used everywhere: defense, business, entertainment, you name it

  If you need to do a lot of typing you can ask your employer for a better keyboard, or buy one yourself. High-end mechanical keyboards allow you to reprogram their firmware and rearrange their keys, so you'll get a new layout without any involvement of the OS and, if you buy the keyboard for yourself, you'll be able to carry it with you whenever you move.

    This is the greatest disappointment of the new crop of Cherry-based keyboards: you can't physically rearrange the keycaps because they're shaped differently for the different rows. The good, old IBM Model M keyboards made switching the keycaps to your preferred layout trivial.

  Colemak and Dvorak are supported on the Mac. Windows supports Dvorak. http://www.howtogeek.com/189270/alternative-keyboard-layouts-explained-dvorak-colemak-and-whether-you-should-care/ http://www.howtogeek.com/189270/alternative-keyboard-layouts... I'm don't think going mainstream is important as long as you can get support: http://www.reddit.com/r/keyboards http://www.reddit.com/r/keyboards
