That sounds vaguely familiar.  A lot of typists will do that, so not
really a good choice.

Another trigger was pressing the shift key several times to turn on an
accessibility feature (I don't recall if this was on Linux).  Again,
not a great idea.  A lot of people will tap on the shift key to wake up
a sleeping monitor, in the belief that as pressing the shift key by
itself won't do anything, it's safe to tap it when you can't see the
screen display.  Ordinarily, that would be true.

Though, generally speaking, those accessibility features had to be
turned on and in standby for them to respond to the trigger.
