Yes, exactly.  Though users are sort of expected to read "Incompatible
changes" sections of NEWS, not all do and it is easy to misunderstand
the real relevance of each section.  In this case, the impact is
pretty big, though personally I'm still trying to incorporate this
feature (I know, I've been missing out) and I could probably rewire my
brain more easily than others.

Anyway, I sometimes toy with the idea of proposing doing this much
more conservative remapping by default.

But even this would probably set off alarms in someone's
workflow.
