As far as I see now that could be done in TLF easily. If we switch the
mode after finishing a QSO and before starting a new one, that should
work flawlessly. All that is needed is a way to switch 'ctcompatible'
on and off by key or command. 

Feel free to experiment on it and prepare a pull request if you like.

Yes, there seems to be different 'operating modes' in our heads also -
some prefer keyboards and other prefer mouse and menus. I fear that
one can not be changed - every one has to choose the programs which
fits their 'internal working' best :-).
