I understood that this is about a fallback binding in case there is none. 

IIUC, today there is already such a fallback binding: S-tab is treated like
tab. This change would treat it like backtab instead. The current fallback
(S-tab -> tab) seems more natural to me - that's all I was saying. No fears
were expressed or implied.
