1. Able to dis-assemble the keypad, and move keys around at will.
2. A common "keycode vs function" lookup table
3. someone selling custom keycaps [take my money]

... Blank caps are 50c each in packets of 100; CNC engraved text filled with paint and covered with clear varnish is extra.

Mind you, it would help if all the key caps were the same size.

No problem with heretics - we just roast them

Your suggestion is crossing the border to HW. Having disassembled (and cracked ) some vintage HPs, I know that individual keycaps were last seen in Voyagers. All the younger calcs had a matrix of keycaps in one piece (or three pieces in the 35S) - for cost reasons, I assume. That won't play a major role if the HW would feature the calculator shells screwed together and the key assembly is "outsourced" to the user. Anyway, HW and assembly questions shall be brought to Eric and Richard.
