OK, maybe "often" is an exaggeration. ...and now that I think about it, "People" is an exaggeration too. To be honest, I think one person asked me about it once. But, someone did ask, so here goes.
Here is how I set up my Nostromo N52te for World of Warcraft.
The N52 has 14 "keyboard" type buttons, and several other buttons of various styles, all designed to fit your hand WELL.
I set the top top rows (buttons 01 thru 10) to copy "Single Key" of the number keys 1-0 across the top of the keyboard.
11 is "Alt"
12 is "Shift"
13 is "Tab", which is Target next Enemy In wow (default setting)
14 is Q, which I have mapped to Jump in wow.
15, the lower thumb button, is mapped to Space bar on the keyboard, which is mapped to auto-run in wow.
The 4-way thumb "hat" button is mapped to run forward, run backwards, strafe left, and strafe right. I don't have ANY turn buttons in my setup, since I use mouselook to turn.
I don't really ever use the little round "upper thumb button" above the directional, or the scroll wheel.
Lastly, the little switch on the bottom, I usually keep it set to OFF, because the blue glow lights up the whole room at night. Hmm.. Maybe I should set that to ON, since last night I nearly tripped and fell on the floor because of a stray network cable. Perhaps I'll rethink that setting.

A straightforward profile, and useful.
While my magery is probably nowhere near as advanced as yours, I would like to offer some suggestions.
Try placing [escape] on the upper thumb button. It's a catch all for cancelling casts, dropping target, closing chat, closing windows, closing bags, or opening the game menu.
Placing Jump on an extra mousebutton will allow you to more fluidly jump while moving.
[Tab] on the scrollwheel allows for scrolling thru targets, and can be used with your bound modifiers to scroll back or through friends.
They backlighting on the keys isn't too bad, but I find the 'mode' lights to be glaring. A couple layers of cello or paper tape will dim it down to a soft glow.
More on the n52te and interface integration is available on my youtube channel, [The Two Ring] at www.youtube.com/user/worldctzen.
