Problem description: It is extremely painful to create a new key binding since NetBeans 4.1. The following is copied from user's email: -- Lets say I want to bind ctrl-a to go to beginning of line (that's what emacs does). Here's what I have to do: 1. Locate the editor settings dialog 2. Select 'Insertion Point to End of Line' 3. Click Add 4. Hit ctrl-a. At this point the dialog won't let me choose this option because it's already bound. This means I have to cancel this dialog, choose the conflicting binding, remove it, then go back to step 1. UGH! There needs to be a way to remove any overlapping bindings at step 4 so that I don't have to do this dance. It would also be helpful to see what is not bound. -- Another issue is that the user cannot _search_ for actions by name or shortcut. Solution: A specific design of the new keymap option panel is TBD.
Reassigning to new module owner jskrivanek.
UI specification for new keymap option panel is available. See the URL field.

Is this still a plan for 6.5?
Unfortunately this enhancement was postponed.
Also please consider unification of keymap option panel and toolbars customizer (see issue 139075).

Jano filed issue 74807 as a DEFECT, so if it is a dupe (really is?) of this one, this should be also DEFECT, right? (also large number of dupes in 74807).

This issue has been reported at least 10 times, and I assume number of people were about to file it, but did find some of the other duplicate issues before ;). Thus raising priority to P2.
