UK Manufacturer Devlin Components.

Not sure how common they are, but they have a lot of different keycap profiles.
Some are pretty unique-looking, e.g., Z = Round "top-hat"

Just as a matter of interest, @ijprest Do you know if Devlin work with hobbyist designers / one offs / small runs?

No idea... I've never seen them in the wild. I just saw that someone had started a poll on Massdrop for them (https://www.massdrop.com/vote/devlin-keycap-profiles), and I had to look them up.

I've started compiling a json file with the various manufacturers and their key profiles, with the idea that the Row/Profile setting per key can be more structured. Possibly this field can then be used to decide how to render the key?
