    They don't have the opportunity if you don't have
    a) an easy way to configure keybindings manually
    b) an easy way to carry your keybindings around on a floppy, web site
    or USB stick.

Please don't argue about this.  We certainly want to have a better
user interface for customizing and saving key bindings.  Nobody is
against it.  We just need someone to write it.

Would you like to write it?
