Comment on Microsoft is adding a new key to PC keyboards for the first time since 1994

Fair enough. Alt used to be that before we decided to have a button to annoyingly pop up the menu strip. And there's still Alt Gr for that in full sized keyboards if we want to go back that way.

Alt Gr is something else. Non-english keyboards use it all day every day for typing their charactersets.
It could probably replace the right OS key, though.
