I'm somebody who alt-tabs out of games quite a bit sometimes depending on what I'm doing.
That reminds me of another annoyance. Some games have Alt as a toggle. If that's not rebindable, that's pretty annoying, since if you ever tab out you often end up toggling the setting.
I don't like having the light activated and I'm somebody who alt-tabs out of games quite a bit sometimes depending on what I'm doing. Now I think about my favourite thing to whine about with keybindings is how in some games you've got an autorun key and they decide to bind it to the numlock.
Very much my reason why I hate utilising tab and caps lock key to assign them as normal functions in games because they have practical uses in other situations outside the games.
What do you use as a replacement for WASD? And does it depend on what genre it is? I do FPS gaming a lot so WASD feels pretty natural to me.
I simply move the entire scheme to the right by one key, so ESDF and I apply that to all the games I play on keyboard. Don't ask me why but I prefer using normal alphabet keys for the most functions. Spacebar is the only exception. Even the shift key, I prefer to not use it as jump button. But I feel someone like me is minority.
I hate using WASD and normally do not buy games that do not let you rebind the keys. I find using caps lock and tab key as normal keys awkward.

I remember when I tried having tab as boost in Elite: Dangerous. That didn't last past the hangar, and neither did my ship.
