For what it's worth, I don't use the slit at all, and the only value the
[autohid] toolbar holds for me is for those rare times when X locks up
my keyboard (switching workspaces using the mouse allows me to use the
keyboard again). With the power of bbkeys, I -- and others -- need
neither the toolbar *nor* the slit.
