Change keys mapping on computer keyboard

In thread 554, Judy Rutherford asked for the possibility
to change the key for entering bar lines, because the
Tab key was on the far left side on the keyboard.

I personally would like to change the keys for accidentals
because the actual order (natural-flat-sharp) seems to me
a bad choice. I would prefer flat-natural-sharp.

But maybe the best thing would be to have a completely
customisable keyboard. Is this possible ? In brief, what
should I add to the wish list:
- change the order of accidentals ?
- or have a customisable keyboard ?

In the 10 Key area of your keyboard, there is a "Star Key" above the 9. It works on my keyboard, it should work on yours to enter bar lines. I should note that it enters only a single barline and if one different needs to be there, then after entering it, marking it and changing the selection.
