That stuff is sold as shelf and drawer liner, and is available at just
about everywhere kitchen supplies are sold. (Mine came from that mecca of
capitalism, Wal-Mart.) It works great. Having never learned how to use a
bug, I don't smack my paddle around like some do; however, my Bencher BY-2
did tend to meander a few inches over a period of weeks. With the rubber
waffle-style shelf liner under the paddle, it might as well be screwed
down to the desktop. I pushed the paddle to see how much force was
required to move it, and I had to push quite hard to get it to move at
all. That rubber waffle-style shelf liner stuff is really amazing.

I got a small swatch of a rubberized waffle like padding - you can see
through the mesh like a screen - and it stops the 'scoot' really great.
I've had
it so long that I can't remember where it came from, and I'm not even
sure it
was intended for use with a key. The one I have is blue, quite thin, and
very
soft. If anyone knows where it comes from or it's original intended use,
I
think it would be a boon to all cw ops.
