That really gets me annoyed, particularly when they take far longer to
find and click the rodent.  Of course, there are some badly designed
applications (including many commercial ones) which don't handle pop-up
dialog boxes properly (including the infamous "Do you want to cancel?
OK, No, Cancel").

That is exactly why I want to intercept the keys, in my application
using Left, Right, space, etc. is the expected way to control it (using
buttons isn't).  Just as you would expect to be able to use the cursor
keys in an editor or paint program to control a cursor or line, not have
it switch between buttons.
