The value of a systemwide shortcut like <span><span class="phui-tag-view phui-tag-type-shade phui-tag-grey phui-tag-shade "><span class="phui-tag-core ">go to next/previous tab</span></span></span> is diminished if individual apps override it due to conflicts. In these cases, the wiser course of action IMHO is to change the thing that it conflicts with</p>
<p>Think of it this way:</p>
<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">If we make Kate deviate from the standard tab-changing shortcuts, we will get a steady stream of bug reports about the inconsistency, <em>forever</em>. I know because Gedit is in <a href="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737230" class="remarkup-link" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">exactly</a> <a href="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705648" class="remarkup-link" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">this</a> <a href="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775375" class="remarkup-link" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">situation</a>.</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">If we change the <span><span class="phui-tag-view phui-tag-type-shade phui-tag-grey phui-tag-shade "><span class="phui-tag-core ">move to [top,bottom] of view</span></span></span> shortcuts in Katepart, we will get bug reports <em>once</em> from the few users who used the old shortcut, and once they have adapted or change the shortcut for themselves, thereafter nobody will ever again complain about anything pertaining to this matter.</li>
</ul>
<p>Option #2 gives us less work and headache over the long haul, and makes things better for any existing users who don't use the <span><span class="phui-tag-view phui-tag-type-shade phui-tag-grey phui-tag-shade "><span class="phui-tag-core ">move to [top,bottom] of view</span></span></span> shortcuts in Katepart-based apps.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R40 Kate</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D7497" rel="noreferrer">https://phabricator.kde.org/D7497</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>dfaure, cullmann, ngraham<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>cfeck, ngraham, dhaumann, cullmann, kwrite-devel, Kate<br /></div>
