There are several unfortunate naming decisions in the code.
Finger vs. thumb and key vs. thumb are one. I sort of like finger better, because after all the thumb has keys on it no less than the rest of the keyboard. I thought about having a configurable number of segments each with its own placement function, to get rid of all the hard-coding, but then decided this would only make sense if there were users with more than one opposable digit per hand. Not knowing of any, and not being one myself, this appears to be an unnecessary bit of (ahah) flexibility.
"Marshmallowy," "mallowy," "marshmallow," etc. were a more useful distinction when I was adding them into adereth's code and thinking of making them switchable; and the joy I felt at seeing them attached to my keyboard, and their roundness, reminded me of Homestar Runner saying, "marshmallow." But the adjective was always too long, and at this point it should go away.
There are three kinds of glue connectors at this point (well, two and a half), with another in the offing. The originals are stuck in dactyl.clj, as I recall to avoid circular imports. They need good names.
