Glad to see other people experimenting with this kind of setup. I've known a few people to use one of these [1] for Emacs (for Ctrl & Meta), and I finally picked one up a while back.
My setup has one pedal bound to Escape for Vim, and the other two switchable using F keys and some xbindkeys magic. By default, they're "switch WM workspace" (sort of like Alt-Tab) and "switch window focus within a workspace" in Awesome WM, but I can change them to e.g. j and k for reading my email, or have them run various scripts, or whatever.
It's a lot of fun to use, but I haven't been on it much lately having switched to a standing desk and I haven't yet figured out a way to make the two play together nicely. And, as always, I've been meaning to throw the scripts & dotfiles on GitHub, but I'm a slacker.
