The biggest issue comes for me when you're playing a game that won't let you assign punctuation marks to commands, you have to shift all the way over to PEUI to make it work, which is not helpful (that's RDFG in QWERTY)

That's why I keep QWERTY on one of my computers.

Ah. I don't have a problem with games because in Lion/Snow Leopard you can switch between layouts with ⌘+SPACE.

Please tell me you didn't override spotlights keyboard shortcut.  Most useful mac shortcut ever.

Oh I mostly use Alfred in place of Spotlight, the shortcut for which is ⌥+SPACE.
