When I use longpress for the space bar (probably unusual) I notice that the popup buttons are all as wide as the space bar itself and that this is set in their element style setting rather than through CSS so I can’t figure out how to make the popup keys a sensible size. I don’t want them all the same size as the parent key. Any ideas?

Yeah, it’s not ideal. This is a limitation in Keyman at present. We should probably improve this!
Yours isn’t the only keyboard that does this: khmer_angkor is another.
One consideration for the future, in terms of keyboard design: spacebar is likely to get other system-defined behaviours in the future, such as flicking left/right to swap languages. It may be preferable to avoid longpress on spacebar to avoid potential for conflict here.
