Details:

I'm aware I'm probably a minority who cares about readline, but certain
readline keys don't work in the GUI at cset 1ffaad442161. C-n opens a new
editor window and C-r results in a parse error.

I'm not sure this really should be fixed or not. The readline keys will
naturally conflict with the keybindings that users will expect. I would like
perhaps an overall Emacs keybinding theme. I believe Qt provides such a thing.
