"No matches" key assist popup on Esc after switching to Emacs and back:

- new workspace, close Welcome
- Preferences > Keys: switch to Emacs and click OK
- press Esc
  => Key assist popup appears and shows 3 proposals (good)

- Preferences > Keys: switch to Default and click OK
- press Esc (sometimes you have to press twice)
  => Key assist popup appears with message "No matches"
  => Expected: no popup, since Esc is not bound (same as if you press F1)

I did not get the "No matches" popup after a restart of Eclipse.

This bug is more general:
When binding a command with a prefix (for example "Ctrl+X,Ctrl+S"), and then unbinding it, the prefix is not properly removed. (even without changing to emacs scheme)

This causes the prefix sequence to be unusable by other commands until you restart eclipse.
