    I have a couple touch bar macs, and the touch bar is fine.

    However, I installed Ubuntu on one of my touch bar macs. The keyboard has no physical escape key; that would be on the touch bar. So, my Ubuntu touch bar Mac now has no escape key, which is a bit problematic, so having a fix for that would be cool.

    It is not a big deal for me, since I’m just using it as a server, but it could be a deal breaker for using a touch bar Mac with Linux as a PC.

      This was the major problem with the Mac version too. Esc is such a necessary button and they put it behind a bunch of ridiculous other stuff, like if you open the volume slider, now you have to press off of it and then hit esc, so esc is now two button presses.
