  > This just changes a singular aspect of overall window and VD management and associated shortcuts. The change of keys combinations need to be planed, agreed on and then done together. We did not come to a resolution overall.
  
  See the task thread. There is a plan, this is the only option that won't cause conflict elsewhere. I wouldn't have approved otherwise.
  
  > Unfamiliar users accidentally pressing the wrong combination might end up in a state they do not expect and don't know how to recover from directly (for example moving a window to another VD).
  
  Plasma only has one VD by default. This no-ops by default.
  
  > The shortcuts here need both hands. A workflow with quick switching of windows between different VDs is not possible.
  
  So then they won't press it by accident? Also it's spatial, which means arrow keys work best. That's a pretty established pattern.
