Let's have two "hand-heel" bars, below (i.e., in front of) the space bar, one for CONTROL and one for META. That would be great. And if you didn't like hand-heel bars, you should be able to plug in cables attached to foot pedals, or a knee lever, as on a sewing machine. Incidentally, the knee lever is an excellent device, and very good for analog input. With a suitable stepping device, and agreement as to where the values belong on a linear scale, you could input commands for underlining, boldface and other display features.
