I think this is probably a good idea. I don’t think it conflicts with what I said, though.
I personally find sanitising the keyboard quite annoying if the computer is already on, so would probably restrict this to the start/end of the day and try to prevent contamination from hands the rest of the time.
It’s not a big deal, especially if I’m using sanitizer anyway: just smear some on the keyboard from the hands before it all dries up.
This suggests to me that you’re either using too much hand sanitiser or (post-keyboard-transfer) too little.
As long as the screen is locked, it doesn’t even matter if you press the keys while you’re smearing, but I don’t usually go in that hard anyway. I just grab a little extra sanitizer for the keyboard and make sure to hit the tops of the keycaps at least. ;) My office has a half-gallon pump bottle of the stuff, so I just give the pump an extra centimeter of travel when I want to do the keyboard (and mouse, BTW). It doesn’t have to be often; I usually just wash my hands anyway. And I’m under no illusions that smearing some hand sanitizer on a keyboard is a perfect cleaning job, but it’s surely better than nothing. :)
