I've been having this problem too on 7.10.  If there is a short-cut key
to turn this on and off, it should be documented and have the option to
disable it.

In "Keyboard Accessibility Preferences", I have the "Enable keyboard
accessibility preferences" unchecked.   The "Enable Mouse Keys" checkbox
is usually unchecked and inactive.  However, whenever mouse keys turns
itself on, the "Enable Mouse Keys" checkbox becomes checked and inactive
even though the "Enable keyboard accessibility preferences" checkbox
remains unchecked.

Apparently, mouse keys does not respect the state of the "Enable
keyboard accessibility preferences" checkbox.  It will become enabled
even though I've in spite of my preferences.

To disable mouse keys I have to check "Enable keyboard accessibility
preferences" (to make "Enable Mouse Keys" active) , uncheck  "Enable
Mouse Keys" and then uncheck "Enable keyboard accessibility
preferences".

Too many steps to disable a feature that shouldn't be enabled in the
first place.
