every time i login to a debian VM on the console using virt-manager, i type and edit command lines in bash. one of the most important editing keys in bash is ^W (delete prev word). every time i do that, the console is closed. using ^W while editing command lines is a long-ingrained habit, so i do it repeatedly during any session.
this is, to put it very mildly, extremely annoying. the virt-manager console window does not need and should not have keybindings for its menus. all key-strokes (except for Ctrl-Alt to release the pointer) should be sent to the VM exactly as typed. at the very least, menu keybindings should be a configurable option. i don't care much what the default is, as long as there's a way for me to turn them all off. craig -- craig sanders <c...@taz.net.au> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
