We know very well that well-designed keyboard UI can run circles around mouse-based one in a typical application. If you're a user of a "Kanban board", you're not some aunt with a phone, you are most likely in the office and you can learn to use the keyboard productively in the productivity app you use every day.

No. Instead it means you are a project manager, and that often implies that your technical skills are on the same level as that aunt, maybe slightly better, but not by much.

Or just keep using drag'n'drop which is the established pattern, which also works really well for this, with the mouse you already have in the office.

I am not a PM so I couldn't care less, but I think this is really condescending to people who work in that role. If you're a knowledge worker, it's your responsibility to make yourself familiar/efficient with the tools you use daily.

Actually there are no project managers using Kanbanize at that customer of mine. They have exactly one developer and currently three freelance developers working remotely. All of us use Kanbanize every day because it's the place where we write the specs of what we have to do. One of the partners use it to answer our questions but I don't think he moves cards around.
