Huh? If this is preventing implementation of cursor keys throughout all
applications, why don't we just ditch this misfeature and make the
keyboard behave like a, um, keyboard rather than a text editor?

I'm sure most people prefer usable navigation over autocorrect (which
often autocorrects wrong, btw).

And if that's not the case, maybe make this optional: let the user chose
(via an option or setting) whether he wants direct keyboard (with cursor
keys, modifiers and everything) or autocorrect.
