I'm just wondering what the thought process is for making the shortcuts configurable, or why that's going to be significantly hard? I find that to be highly desirable feature, one of the reasons being avoiding something like this from happening (with browser bindings). Some of us have other tools which are also unconfigurable and bind to the same keys, and now you have conflicts between them.

However, what I think doesn't matter at all in the scheme of things, I'm just throwing in my $0.02.

Thanks,

OK, applied as-is for now. I guess all our shortcuts will probably end
up being Ctrl+Shift+Something :-(
