Comment (by Ken Truesdale <kentruesdale@…>):
While it may be true that the shift key is ignored when taking action,
clearly it isn't ignored when being captured and it isn't that Myth should
ignore or warn about invalid key bindings (although, sure a warning about
a truly invalid binding would be fine). It's that the way it is "seeing"
the binding during capture that is the real problem. That was the reason
for my comment - because I thought the original ticket may not have been
clear on that.
Paul, thanks for the quick response. When I saw how old the ticket was, I
had the same conclusion as you: 3 years with no change on a trivial matter
(and one that I have now proved can be worked around through SQL) is
clearly the sign of not enough resources to whack all the moles. And
frankly, I probably would have chosen the same priorities - recent changes
finally have .27 stable enough that the WAF is now high enough we don't
use the cable box any more and that's way more important than not being
able to use a "+" without using SQL. And while I'd love to take a look at
the code to try to squash the bug, I'd need to start with setting up a
development environment and given the time I just spent doing a rebuild of
my backend, there's no time in my schedule for that. So ultimately, I
personally made the same decision as others: this is low priority and I'd
rather keep working on the important stuff that keeps the rest of it
humming. And I figured that if I posted that adjustment to the ticket, it
might help somebody who was in a "while I'm already fixing xyz, I can fix
that" mode to more quickly get to the fix. Thanks again, Paul.
