Ok, obviously you are willing to use the keyboard if you like the game enough, then why all the reluctance from everyone in using the keyboard for space empires(which requires MUCH less reflexes and stress then a FPS)? It seems that you agree with me, I'm basically saying the hotkey commands make the UI much smoother, and there's no good reason not to use them in this sort of game where there's a large amount of commands to execute you need at least 3 mouse strokes and clicks as opposed to 1 key command. You seem to be saying the keyboard is essential too, where's our conflict?
What would be really cool would be a key board over lay or cheat sheet that listed all of the hot keys.

Isn’t there a keyboard being developed that will be able to do just that?

The Optimus Keyboard All the keys are programmable, it uses OLED tech to change what the keys themselves display. Can't wait
