Suggest adding decimal point to num layer

Seems to be an oversight to me

The ideal place for it would be to match the dot position on the base layer, but unfortunately that spot is occupied by 3.

I tend to just come out of numpad layer to hit the dot. I think you're right though, it would be worth having it in the num layer too. I can think of various options:

  1. On the base X key (mirror image of the dot key on the base layer, would require menu mapping to move).
  2. On the base F key (easy to hit with middle finger but not particularly intuitive).
  3. On the base M key (good position next to numbers would have knock-on effect displacing other symbols).

I'll consider it more, but would expect to add in future update.

That's OK I'm not just using your layout. I am just researching what layouts are out there to put together a layout. I am still at the stage of trying different things out using KMonad before buying a mechanical keyboard, but still trying to decide how many keys, 34, 36, or 42.
