Re: [platform-ui-dev] RFC: Key Bindings Proposal (end date = Dec 14, 2001)

The key bindings proposal should not overarchitect / generally go
overboard.  It should restrict itself to the minimal set of *global*
Eclipse actions (Find, Save, Save as, Cut, Copy, Paste, and the like),
rather than trying to define all possible common actions of editors / tools
hosted by Eclipse.

This will leave room for the tools to define their natural accelerators,
rather than trying to fit their operation into predefined ones, and
discover certain keys are consumed by Eclipse because of an obscure key
binding.
