The standard default for the U2 Helpkey is F-11. On my keyboard,
that's at the upper Left, outer edge, where it's pretty hard to hit by
mistake or confuse with anything else. While the Xy keyboard is
almost infinitely malleable, K5 on the NumPad is normally a "dead" key
almost everywhere else, so I never mapped anything there. I've long
found it useful to have a key that will bring the system back from the
screensaver, or change focus between contiguous windows, but do
*nothing else.*
