 Re: Rest left pinky on key?

As I read these comments, I'm wondering how easy it is to teach a young student to hold his left pinky *on* (touching) the E/B lever and the right pinky *on* the F/C key without occasional mishaps involving accidentally pressing those keys down. Neither would need to go down to full closure to cause small glitches in technical passages work or even in slower legato lines - just far enough down to affect the color or quality of the notes that are intended.

Obviously, I wasn't taught this or I wouldn't need to ask the question, but my knee-jerk reaction is that a finger resting on a key is one that sooner or later will unconsciously press it while the player isn't paying close attention (or is attending to something else).
