Why not a color-code ? à la Simon
Like there is a pie on the screen, and user drags parts from center to outside.

Resulting smudge would look like a star. Everytime.

I definetely need to point Google contacts to this idea (to go to IO 2011 on an all inclusive basis).

it could be possible to have another pattern-recog. program that mimics the online banks keyboards (numbers are never at the same place).
Cherry on top, this keyboard always points to the north. So to share the smudge (it should). Think of a 3D compass.
