I can understand your thinking but if this was to become available as an
option, I think it would be important for the default to be not to
invert. Otherwise it would cause extra frustration for new users with
previously learned keyboard habits. I'm also not sure it would be easy
to learn to type different keystrokes for the same symbol depending on
the application I was using.
