A bit of additional information. I *believe* if you logout/restart/reboot by clicking the icon in the top right and using the menu, the navigation shortcuts are preserved. If you restart by any other method, IE, reboot, init 6, shutdown, etc then the navigational shortcuts are wiped. I'll update this if I find out to the contrary but so far that's what I've found.
