@mwichary I'm having a hell of a time finding the term for this... is there a name for the cutouts (sometimes stickers, sometimes not) you could place on keyboards that helped with mnemonics for applications? These were popular in the late 80s when I was learning to type.

Yeah, I feel like overlays and templates were used interchangeably.

Yeah, I think the modern version of overlays is those rubbery things that are mostly used to make your keyboard look different and as protection from liquids?
