I like that idea. In the meantime, my 6 year old taught me a trick. On the iPad, you can split the keyboard. It works in-game. It's a little less obstructive. It takes some getting used to also. Simply drag 2 fingers from the middle of the keyboard away from each other towards opposite sides. Reverse the motion to restore. I don't know if it works on any other device. Here's a couple of screen shots.
