I find that I'm making lots of mistakes when typing with even a single
finger (maybe because of dry hands, some keypressed are not registered
unless I type very accurately and slowly) so I cannot really imagine
typing with more than one finger. But if you manage it, I agree that
it's a valid usecase which we should keep working.

However, I don't think that it should be the default: having the
keyboard appear in a much smaller size and with a "maximize" button on
one of its corners (which brings it to the current size) might make
everyone happy.

Ciao,
  Alberto
