Since you're using two hands anyway in that mode, you wouldn't win much here.

But of course the main issue is that would you then move the entire top row down: status area, app. back/close button etc. I perhaps wouldn't think that to be a very good idea.
Yeah i agree that moving the entire top row would be a bad idea. As i previously commented, the use of keyboard shortcut needs 2 fingers of two different hands while both the hands are holding the n900 which is not really ergonomic. If somehow only the task switches is moved either on the left(similar to previous maemo versions) or to the right lower corner you just need to extend your thumb and press the lower part of the screen.

Of course without using the device i am really not in a very good position to comment on this whole issue.
