If only that other OS had keyboards tailored for it...

We could have, I don't know, Compose, Super, Meta, instead of things like Menu that serves no purpose whatsoever.

My Menu key just lost it's virginity because of this comment.

My scroll-lock key lost its virginity a few days ago, when I realized, I could use it for the Compose-key.

I remapped it for Yakuake, pretty handy for plasma.

Menu key serves a purpose when you need to access a context menu without a mouse to right click with.

Granted, I've needed that maybe a grand total of three times over the course of nearly three decades of computer use. But I don't know how you access that menu otherwise. It's a nice bit of redundancy from a company that doesn't often think of that.
