A lot of people I know had it mapped to the ` key back in beta. This is
a great place for it because it's a rarely used key and right beside all
the rest of your hotkeys. It was screwed up for a while due to Verant's
arbitrary mapping of the transparency toggle to it but they recently
allowed that to be remapped so you can use it again. Of course I use the
wasd keys for movement so this is even more convenient. Because I was
used to UO where talking didnt require hitting return, the first thing I
did in EQ was move every configurable key off the letter keys. After
attacking a shopkeeper of course. :)
