Key binding woes

Just started today and I'm running into a couple annoyances with key bindings.

First off, I use Dvorak, a non-QWERTY keyboard layout. I've already chimed in on another thread about this: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/7090. TL;DR: Games should use OS keyboard layout features to adjust their bindings automatically.

So now I've decided to actually go to set up my keys. I want to basically keep everything the same, but just transliterated to Dvorak. Unfortunately the key binding window won't let me. It refuses to accept the punctuation keys in the location of Q (apostrophe), W (comma), and E (period).

I could look past the Dvorak issue, because I'm willing to accept the responsibility of being weird. :P I can't for the life of me imagine why there are arbitrary restrictions for key bindings in general, though.

Just my 2 scrolls of wisdom

I also wanted to chime in as perhaps the 2nd Dvorak user, also trying the beta for the first time today.

Everything was going great until I tried to bind the keys. Yes, I actually want your choices for the skill slots except, as mentioned, they map to my ',.py. When attempting to bind these I get an invalid key error.

I agree with your choices of keys to default to as they are some of the best keyboard real estate. Will I be able to use these?

The devs have stated in the past that they plan to allow custom keybinds as well as support for non-standard keyboards. I don't know of any timeframe for that, though.

I am avid Dvorak user and have the same problem! need to bind skills to ',. keys!
