Thanks for feedback! You are right. The problem is that those keys shouldn't be used together with shift modifier, because the action should not be SHIFT+right but only right key. I fixed it by moving the keys to different layout layer. You will have to press "ã/F" instead of shift. You may adjust you keyboard layout yourself before I prepare new package. See the changes here.

BTW you may move the cursor to the beginning of line by pressing KT physical home button.

I actually liked the 0.7 way of graying the key.
This one is tricky. I tested different options, but changing key color causes ugly effects on slow e-ink screen. Some users also observed similar problems with matchbox-keyboard kterm. For now I chose a compromise, so that the effect is visible but not disturbing. At the same time I realize that the visual effects may look different on various e-ink devices or even on the same kindle model under different conditions.

I will put on my todo list a feature, that the key visual effect could be user configurable.
