You see, that's the reason why this has not been implemented yet. It's quite easy to add a key handler to the code but then we get dozens for posts here where people complain the key allocation.
Exactly the response I was hoping to trigger :)
Believe me, I do NOT want to support 200+ users all with their own custom key-mapping.
I agree.
And now it's missing. This deadlock isn't good either, I'd rather see well-chosen shortcuts that are at least shared with 1 or 2 other mail applications then none.
picking thunderbird's shortcuts (n, del, space, r) would be a huge gain. I'm sure people will moan but you can at least say that you didn't grab them from /dev/random and other people have thought about them before.
You can always ignore the keyboard shortcuts completely, and wave that at people who complain that ctrl-alt-shift-pgup doesn't go to the prev-non-nested-one-level-up-folder or something. Draw a line and stick with it.
