I'm getting more comfortable with the keyboard metaphor and I pushed it 
a bit to write SHIFT ALT A on separate "key" (gray rectangles) rather 
than writing SHIFT-ALT-A on just one big one.
Those "keys" are a bit big though and something should be done to bring 
them in line with the text and while so doing free the space between the 
lines (forgot the English technical term) since they sometimes almost touch.
I guess that making the letters inside them on size smaller would do it 
: the difference with the other uppercase letters in the text should not 
be psychologically noticeable since they benefit from the emphasis 
brought by the gray rectangles.
