I don't know. I guess you have to apply it manually. It's a patch to
src/BufferView_pimpl.C and I can't commit anything there.

The real issue is that we need some enhancement for key bindings. Currently
we cannot bind everything to any key. I mean things like:
Bind "M-g #1" to "math-mode; math-greek #1; cursor-right"
It's simply not possible right now but would help a lot in situations like
yours.
