Okay, I've decided on the following for now (if I get serious about raiding I'll drop the money on a gaming mouse/keyboard, but since I'm only a filthy casual right now...lol):
I moved my movement over to ESDF to have access to more buttons with my ring finger. I changed S + F to strafe instead of turn. I steer by right click + drag to rotate my camera/character. This is what has taken the most adjustment.

I have this setup twice, one for the keys themselves, one for shift +. I intend to add Ctrl +, but baby steps:
Hotbar 1: 1-5
Hotbar 2: QWRT
Hotbar 3: AG
Horbar 4: ZXCVB

This leaves a hole in my layout for my movement buttons: The hotbars are layed out to match the keyboard so I can visualize it better. It's a major adjustment right now, but I think it's going to be worth it! As a bonus, I set the Shift + E key to sprint, so if I need to run, I just hit the shift bar.
