            Bug ID: 332666
           Summary: Destructive actions without confirmation have
                    non-editable key-bindings
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: konversation
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: FreeBSD Ports
                OS: FreeBSD
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konversation-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: cluebat at mailinator.com

The key bindings for menu items appear to be non-editable as I can find nothing
in Konversation preferences to change the hotkeys. Some of the actions are
destructive (clearing scrollback and markers). Without confirmation or an
ability to undo, these destructive actions are dangerous. The default
key-bindings make it far too easy to accidentally trigger. Attempting to type a
capital L, I slipped and bumped ctrl at the same time, results in loosing
everything in all windows. It might as well have been an unconfirmed quit.
These destructive actions are unlikely to be frequently used. It would be best
if the user could choose the key-binding they want if any to trigger these
actions. Short of that flexibility, it would be best to not have any key
bindings at all so as to prevent accidental triggering and the ensuing
frustration. I can't help but notice other functions (that might be more
commonly used) e.g. Disconnect, have no key bindings. My simple solution for
the moment is to follow suit and remove the shortcut keys for these destructive
actions.
