But I never said you'd lose it! I said now the shift key that used to do the upper/lower case is free for custom use. I'm proposing alpha to do what it's supposed todo: control everything about the alpha mode. Let the shifts be for commands (system or custom) and alpha be for text entry.
I use custom commands too, but I find it easier to assign to a shifted key (which can have the visual aid, etc.)

You are not going to lose anything, but you'll have to move keys around and get used to different keystrokes for sure.
