Unfortunately, I agree.
For example "sticky keys" function (when I don't need to push Shift + other key nut once but I can click Shift and then other key, of course using both keys at once also do work) is very useable for me on Motorola Droid 4. Sailfish lacks this function.

If you remap keyboard files located in /system/usr/key*/ directories you can use ALT+TAB to switch between apps and CTRL+C/X/V/A on text editing.
I have remapped Caps Lock key to CTRL and ALT so now I can easily type using it Polish characters (ą,ć,ę, ...), use ALT+TAB (using one finger as the keys are located next to each other) and mentioned CTRL+C/X/V/A.
