Compete agreement on the left Ab/Eb key William. It should be relatively easily removable (for those who think it gets in the way), standard, well placed away from the existing left pinky keys, and of minimal additional cost to the consumer.
Sure, purists will argue it's not needed, and like air conditioning in a car, its not a necessity, but I feel should be just as ubiquitous.
There are enough situations in clarinet play where, for example, use of a chromatic key where one shouldn't, finds the player in a "you can't get there from here situation," that we don't need this as well for pinky play.
And there are enough aspects of clarinet play to separate the pros from the wanna-be players that "I learned the hard way, so can you [regarding pinky play]" type mentality just doesn't cut it with me. I feel like telling these players that "once upon a time clarinet players made their own reeds from scratch, should we go back to that too because generations of players before us had to deal with that."
Someday, should synthetics reeds be acceptable by the clarinet masses as "at least as good as cane, if not better," should we turn our backs on them because those that came before us had to deal with the inconsistencies of cane?
