[[Eclipse 3.2rc3 on MacOS X 10.4.6, Java5]] Display view: press "home" or "end" key jumps to text-start or text-end in Display view (that's mac OS X default). redefining the keys in Eclipse preferences to jump to line begin/end instead (setting 'When: Editing Text'). -> works in java editor, but display view ignores my key redefinition. [probably because display view is not a standard editor view]
The Text Editing context isn't active in the display view
Actually enabling the text editing context isn't enough. The workbench defines the command and keybinding, but the handler (LineEndAction) is created by AbstractTextEditor. In order to get all of the text editing keybindings to work in the display view, we'd have to define our own handler for every command.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
Works well will Eclipse 4.14 and Mac 10.14.6 with Java 8. Please reopen if you observe something not working still.
