I actually injured my arm a couple of days back so I haven't been able to apply and compile this yet to try it.Maybe we'd want something like --modern as the name for enabling the name of the larger scale bindings?Just speaking for myself, I have no concerns with patch #1 as it is described. For #2, even better than an invocation check for me would just be a toggle to switch between the modes, but the invocation check is a lovely idea also.
Oh, you can also see the web browser behavior being discussed with the shell and nano implementation at https://humphd.github.io/browser-shell/ (though it looks like it's nano-tiny). Most browser shell implementations I've tried (Proxmox, cockpit, Google Cloud) function like this where the browser intercepts ^w and ^t (and some ^r) but other keystrokes pass through without issue.
