I have toyed with that idea, but the problem with putting them above the
display is that when you're adjusting a value with the knob, the display
showing you where it's at will be under your wrist.
And I prefer the look of the bottom row of the keypad linig up with the
step keys.

I'm not sure where else they can go if I want to keep the layout
suitable for a 4U rack panel.
I don't have a problem avoiding them when I'm using the keypad, so I
suspect I'll leave them where they are on ready-built units, unless
otherwise requested.
Since the pots are on separate wires and bolt directly to the panel, kit
builders are free to put them where they like.
If someone comes up with a great new location, I'll be happy to pinch
the idea...

Cheers,
Colin f
