I'm creating a custom keyboard layout. The SDK allows changing the width of keys in a row (as in ThickButtons), but ideally I'd like to be able to vary both the height and width of keys within a row (and still have the keys occupy all the available space.)

Another way of looking at this is that I want to allow some keys to be in more than one contiguous row. Any ideas would help. Thank you.
