Disable hardware volume buttoms? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody know how to disable the volume hardware keys? My wife is getting aggravated because they are directly opposite the power button and she is inadvertently turning off the ringer because the volume buttons are very sensitive. Any way to turn them off?

Volume lock

No matter who's ROM that's 23569 based I have tried, and a few earlier ones, the volume up and down keys do not lock when you lock the screen. So I keep finding that my Fuze volume status will change from speaker on to vibrate or vibrate to silent. Anyone know of a ROM that locks this, a software patch or is there some kind of registry fix to prevent this?
Moved as not ROM Development.
I use Tarkim's modified keyboard driver http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521786 it offers to remap keys even when screen is locked. I change my volume keys to a long press to set volume and a short press does nothing. This keeps from accidentally changing volume while holding phone.

[Q] volume button on case

Every time I touch the Volume Button on the side of the case (even accidentally) the ringer volume goes down incrementally. Can this button be locked or deactivated? Can the volume be locked in some other way? Does the vibration setting have anything to do with this issue?
Volume Control + will lock your volume for you.

Didnt work, I can still press the volume buttons while off- turning on the screen-changing the volume.

Switch volume buttons?

Is there a way to switch the volume buttons in portrait mode? When I turn it around, I turn it to the right so the power button is top right. But in the position, the top rocker turns the volume down instead of up and gets kind of annoying. Is there a way to switch the buttons based on the orientation?

That's actually something that's bothering me as well. I sometimes find myself having the tablet turned the other way and then the volume buttons are 'wrong' (up = softer and down = louder sound). So any idea's are welcome
