[Usability] Disabled "F"word guessing :)



Not sure if this is the right place, but I have an idea for people that can't type very fast or accurately.
My friend has MD and a very hard time hitting every key to make a word on the screen.  Wouldn't it be nice to have something that she could use that would give options for words and somehow predict what she wants.
Take a look at your keyboard.  at the top you have the function keys... four sets... it is easy for her to hit those on her keyboard because they are divided into section.
Could he have a system that would... when you begin typing show the words on the screen that it things you are typing and you can select on of the four words it provides from the list to speed up your data entry and make typing less stressful?

To further explain...
I type "t" and my computer shows at the bottom of the screen "the" "they" "them" "there" She can keep typing ignoring them OR press F1-4 for "the" F5-8 for "they" and etc.  And you could have it then complete the word and guess at others.  It could be rather smart.  I remember a tool in KDE that you drags the mouse threw words and you could make full sentences because it was so good at guessing what you were saying.  Very nice actually.
What do you think... don't be afraid to PM me at my gtalk account and ask further questions.
Thanks for your time.
