To be honest I never have any problem with that sort of thing with Colemak in terminals.

The only issue I have is in games, where WASM is a religion.

As much as I hate rebinding WASD in every game ever (and no two games share anything like a similar remap tool; every game's settings are a unique snowflake), it does at least amuse me every time that Colemak's replacement is WARS. It seems more appropriate for games, it spells out a vaguely appropriate word and R for Reverse actually makes sense mnemonically. (Walk, Around, Reverse, Sideways ;)

Though nearly universal support of Xbox gamepads and made me more of a gamepad by default player, saving WASD remapping for rare cases.
