I've read to the end of the thread, but just thought I could answer the 
above question:

After you have overridden actions via setKeyBinding(), or added new 
bindings, you can override...

public void invokeAction(int action)

... in your StyledText sub-class to handle what you have defined. You 
can also selectively call the super-class version when you want the 
action handled by the original code. Hope this helps.

Best regards,
