You could also add those two items to the custom items list at LaunchBar.

If you are already using a launcher like that, you still accomplish uncluttered desktop + keyboard access.

Using Quicksilver:

If you've got "Find All Applications" checked in your catalog, Quicksilver already has 'CharPaletteServer.app' and 'KeyboardViewerServer.app' in memory. Just search for those strings + enter.

I love the keyboard viewer especially. Makes learning a new keyboard layout extremely easy.
