While I try to stay as neutral as possible, I'd like to make you aware
that your tone is not producing any good feelings while I am trying to
support you.  Indeed, if everyone were to write in a tone like this, I'd
probably given up to support free software questions long ago.

You could, for instance, let us know which key bindings in particular
you find unintuitive, and how you would propose to change them.  That
would be constructive criticism.

Yes, Space+Dot7 should be bound to KEY_BACKSPACE, and Space+Dot8 should
be bound to KEY_ENTER.  Now that you mention it, I remember having had
problems to invoke Backspace in an Android input field as well, so there
might still be some work to do.
